Development of an Equivalent Circuit Model Approach to the Design of Dense Arrays of Electrically Small Antennas

We model a linear EZ antenna array for HPEM applications. Equivalent circuit models of the single element EZ antenna and two element array antenna are presented, relating antenna performance and field coupling to physical parameters. This fully parameterized circuit model can be used to load the transmission line or waveguide feed and design a particular aperture field configuration, which can then be synthesized through the physical model.
