Title: Evaluation of the discrete complex-image method for a NEC-like moment-method solution

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/201799· OSTI ID:201799

The discrete image approximation for the field of a half-space is tested in the NEC antenna modeling program as an alternative to the interpolation method presently used. The accuracy and speed of the discrete image approximation are examined for varying number of images and approximation contour, and the solution for current is obtained on a horizontal wire approaching the interface.
