Abstract

Vector effective heights are useful in analyzing the transmitting, receiving, and scattering properties of antennas. In addition to the conventional input current reference, input voltage and incident current references are introduced to define additional effective heights of an arbitrary antenna. Further extended to array antennas, the effective heights for array elements are defined. They are used to characterize radiation, reception, and scattering by general reciprocal antennas and arrays. The effects of load terminations are inspected using examples of a dipole, a patch, and their arrays. While the three effective heights are scaled versions of each other for isolated antennas, they exhibit different angle dependences for array elements due to mutual coupling effects. Quantifying polarization and radiation patterns incorporating coupling effects, effective heights for arrays are useful in the analysis and synthesis of radiation and scattering patterns.

期刊介绍： IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine actively solicits feature articles that describe engineering activities taking place in industry, government, and universities. All feature articles are subject to peer review. Emphasis is placed on providing the reader with a general understanding of either a particular subject or of the technical challenges being addressed by various organizations, as well as their capabilities to cope with these challenges. Articles presenting new results, review, tutorial, and historical articles are welcome, as are articles describing examples of good engineering. The technical field of interest of the Magazine is the same as the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society, and includes the following: antennas, including analysis, design, development, measurement, and testing; radiation, propagation, and the interaction of electromagnetic waves with discrete and continuous media; and applications and systems pertinent to antennas, propagation, and sensing, such as applied optics, millimeter- and sub-millimeter-wave techniques, antenna signal processing and control, radio astronomy, and propagation and radiation aspects of terrestrial and space-based communication, including wireless, mobile, satellite, and telecommunications.
