Abstract

The optimization method for the electrically small linear wire antennas with lumped reactive loads included to their branches is first proposed. The results of the analysis and optimization of microwave characteristics of electrically small linear wire antennas with reactive loads are presented. The results for the quality factor and efficiency of such antennas are first presented. The study is carried out by the approximate and rigorous methods.
