Approximating Circular Radome by a Dielectric Slab in the Antenna Simulations

  • Chapter
Microwave Physics and Techniques

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASHT,volume 33))

Abstract

The effect of the closed circular dielectric radome on the antenna fields is evaluated using the complex-point source model in 2D formulation of the problem. The approximation of the closed radome by an infinite slab is shown to be justified when the far field in the main beam direction is concerned, the beam is rather narrow, and not very inclined to the radome surface.
