A NEW NUMERICAL TREATMENT FOR POCKLINGTONS INTEGRAL-EQUATION

It is shown that the equation for the current flowing on a cylindrical antenna Pocklington's integral equation - can be put into 'a standard form' of dual integral equations, A general method for solving such d ual integral equations is discussed, It consists of a transformation i nto single Fredholm integral equation of the second kind with continuo us kernel, and then into a linear system of algebraic equations by usi ng the weighted residual method. Plots of the current along the antenn a and of the input admittance are finally given.
