EFFECT OF CIRCULAR FINITE GROUND PLANE ON THE RADIATION PATTERN OF A MONOPOLE ANTENNA
Abstract
The paper discusses the variation of monopole antenna’s radiation pattern due to change of its circular ground plane’s electrical size. This variation is evaluated in vertical plane by comparing simulated and measured radiation patterns. Emphasis is placed on the angular dependence of the radiation pattern’s maximum value on the electrical radius of the circular ground plane.
