Singularity Elimination in Current Distribution of a Dipole Antenna in Method of Moment (MOM)
Abstract: In this paper, the singularity subtraction technique for method of moments applying for a dipole antenna is explained. In the calculation of the current distribution waveform for the dipole antenna using method of moment from the Pocklingtons' Integral Equation has faced many logarithmic singularity terms. To avoid the singularities in this paper, we modify the Greens' function which is a major portion of the Pocklington's Integral Equation. The Pulse function …
