This paper presents a comparison of antenna factor characteristics computed by the Method of Moments(MoM) and the electromotive force(EMF) method for a calculable dipole antenna with a hybrid balun. An expression for the antenna factor is formulated using the concept of power mismatch loss. The input impedance and effective length of the antenna, which are in the formula of the antenna factor, are calculated using the two methods. The results show that the antenna factors are agreed within 0.24 dB, although the maximum difference between the input impedances obtained from the two methods is about 17 Ω.
