small hertzian dipole

small hertzian dipole

small hertzian dipole

(OP)
can anyone help me with writting a matlab m file that can perform these following task.
1-Compute the radiated power pattern for far field (meaning do the integral) for small hertzian dipole
2-plot the power pattern in 3D
I realize that the close form solution is hard to derive without advanced math class, please help
cheers

RE: small hertzian dipole

First, "small" is relative.  Giant, huge hertzian dipoles have exactly the same pattern as itsy-bitsy, teeny-weeny hertzian dipoles (each at their own resonant frequency).

Here's a link with some related math-stuff:

By the way, when you're done, make sure the sphere integrates to exactly 0.0 dBi.

RE: small hertzian dipole

I think some of what you asked for can be found in Antenna Design by Balanis, if not then that book displays a nice easy mathematically approach which you should be able to write in matlab. Using MathCAD is also very easy for postprocessing if you want to take it further
