Travelling Wave Antennas •

•
Antennas with open-ended wires where the current must go to zero (dipoles, monopoles, etc.) can be characterized as standing wave antennas or resonant antennas. The current on these antennas can be written as a sum of waves traveling in opposite directions (waves which travel toward the end of the wire and are reflected in the opposite direction). For example, the current on a dipole of length l is given by 2

Travelling Wave Antennas •
Traveling wave antennas are characterized by matched terminations (not open circuits) so that the current is defined in terms of waves traveling in only one direction

Consider a segment of a traveling wave antenna (an electrically long wire of length l lying along the z-axis). A traveling wave current flows in the z- direction.

If the losses for the antenna are negligible (ohmic loss in the conductors, loss due to imperfect ground, etc.), then the current can be written as:
The Magnetic Vector potential is given by:
