ABSTRACT
An antenna is essentially a mechanism by which electromagnetic waves are transmitted or received. It operates on the principle that an accelerating charge particle radiates. A broadcasting antenna comprises a waveguide that carries electromagnetic energy from the source, generating fields that radiate out into space. The notion of electric dipoles and the magnetic dipoles introduced in Chapter 1 comprise the building blocks in antenna analysis [3, 6-8]. More advanced theory on antennae can be found in References [2, 9].
