Abstract:

Lately, short antennas and Crossed Field Antennas (CFA) have attracted broadcast and amateur community attention. The CFA antenna has been developed in the last decade of the 20th century, trying to obtain a compact transmitting antenna for low and medium frequency AM bands. The CFA is intended to be used in order to get a low profile antenna and a supposed performance similar or better compared to a quarter-wave monopole. The CFA has a short monopole and a metallic disk close to the monopole base, both mechanical structures being fed by means of two separated generators. Thus, the CFA has two ports and can be analyzed from the Network Theory point of view. In this paper, the CFA has been studied exhaustively using the Transmission Line Method (TLM) in order to obtain an equivalent network and the antenna performance. Due to the lack of theoretical data to explain the CFA antenna behavior, the TLM has been validated by means of Moment Method simulations and some available experimental data. © 2006 IEEE.
