The comer-reflector antenna excited by a tilted dipole is analysed in detail using the method of images. Expressions for the far-zone electric and magnetic fields, applicable to any point in space and to any corner angle equal to 1$O°/N, where TV is a positive integer, are given in concise and compact forms. Conditions for circular polarisation are obtained not only for the broadside direction, but also for any direction in the azimuth and elevation planes. A systematic method for calculating the driving-point impedance is presented, together with numerical results for the case when the excited element is a half-wavelength dipole.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
