First computer exercise
In this first computer exercise you should
1. investigate basic properties of dipole antennas.
2. practice on antenna parameters such as reflection coefficient,
impedance, radiation pattern, and directivity.
3. get familiar with the program CST. You will use it later in the
course and in the laboratory part of the course.
Preparation: Study the lecture notes and Ch. 15 in Orfanidis. Do
the exercises in Ch. 15, see the instructions (ETEN10_E1.pdf
download from moodle).

Heinrich Rudolf Hertz (1857–1894)
I
Experimental verification of EM waves.
Hertz did not realize the practical importance of
his experiments. He stated that,
Heinrich Rudolf Hertz [6]
”It’s of no use whatsoever[...] this is just an experiment that proves Maestro Maxwell was right - we
just have these mysterious electromagnetic waves
that we cannot see with the naked eye. But they
are there.”
Asked about the ramifications of his discoveries,
Hertz replied,
”Nothing, I guess.”

In power flux is in the radial direction r̂, decays

Approximate current distributions are known for
some simple antennas. We use this approach to
analyze dipole, loop, and patch antennas. Accurate current distributions require numerical solutions, e.g., with MoM.

Appendix: vectors
We use vectors to describe positions and directions. In a Cartesian
coordinate system {x̂, ŷ, ẑ}, we have r = xx̂ + yŷ + zẑ and
r 0 = x0 x̂ + y 0 ŷ + z 0 ẑ with the scalar product
r · r 0 = (xx̂ + yŷ + zẑ) · (x0 x̂ + y 0 ŷ + z 0 ẑ) = xx0 + yy 0 + zz 0
as x̂ · x̂ = 1, x̂ · ŷ = 0, x̂ · ẑ = 0,...
The length of a vector is
p

r = |r| = r · r = x2 + y 2 + z 2
The distance between the two points r and r 0 is

p
|r−r 0 | = (r − r 0 ) · (r − r 0 ) = (x − x0 )2 + (y − y 0 )2 + (z − z 0 )2

(r − r 0 ) · (r − r 0 ) = r2 − 2r · r 0 + r02

r = |r| = x2 + y 2 + z 2 is the length of r

coordinate system to the point r).
θ is the polar angle, i.e., the angle from ẑ

φ is the azimuthal angle, i.e., the angle from
x̂ to the projection of r in the xy-plane.

Appendix: Potentials, far field, and radiation vector
The (time harmonic) Maxwell equations are (also assuming free
space D = 0 E, B = µ0 H)
∇ × E = −jωB
∇ × H = jωD + J
∇·B =0
∇·D =ρ
Continuity equation from ∇ · (∇ × H) = 0
0 = jω∇ · D + ∇ · J = jωρ + ∇ · J
or
jωρ = −∇ · J
Mats Gustafsson, ETEN10:1(44)-2015, EIT, Lund University, Sweden
The divergenceless of B (∇ · B = 0) implies the existence of a
vector potential A such that B = ∇ × A. Moreover,
∇ × E = −jωB = −jω∇ × A implies that there exists a scalar
potential φ such that E = −∇φ − jωA. The vector and scalar
potentials are not uniquely defined and here we impose the Lorenz
gauge ∇ · A = −c−2
0 jωφ. The vector potentials satisfy the
Helmholtz equations
