Antennas Near an Elliptic Cone

An analysis procedure of metallic antennas in the vicinity of a Perfectly Conducting Elliptic Cone is presented. Coupling is derived through an analytically and numerically accurate technique based on full wave analysis. The Dyadic Green's function of the system is derived, verified and subsequently employed, integrated into a MoM procedure. Thus, not only scattering but also the tip diffraction phenomena are rigorously taken into account and no discontinuity appears in the field. The Full Wave MoM Technique can be applied to analyze antenna arrays of wire dipoles in the vicinity of the surface of the cone. Various cases are analyzed indicating the versatility, accuracy and ability of the method to cope with a large set of relative problems.
