A comparative numerical study of several methods for analyzing a vertical thin wire antenna over a lossy half-space

Analysis of Arbitrarily Shaped Wire Antennas Radiating Over a Lossy Half-Space.

“…Even thoug h r the latest reported procedures [7] - [12] require an order of magnitude Less computing t ime than the earlier "brute-for ce" numerical integration techniques [3] - [5], the overall computing time severely limits the physical d imensions of the antenna structures being numerically analyzed .…”
