The analysis of general axially symmetric antennas with a coaxial feed line by the method of lines

The use of the method of lines in the analysis of various circular antennas-circular patch antennas and various forms of monopoles is proposed and substantiated. The antennas considered are fed by coaxial lines. Impedance/admittance transfer procedures are developed, which allow to calculate the antenna input impedance by a successive transfer from the aperture through the different sections. The described relations are also useful for other applications.
