Abstract
A computationally efficient method for analyzing printed wire-loop ant ennas on grounded dielectric substrates which uses curved piecewise si nusoidal subdomain current basis and test functions spanning two segme nts in a moment-method solution to Pocklington's equation is presented . Results for loop-input impedances are convergent, and these, togethe r with efficiencies, compare favorably with computations using entire domain and linear subdomain basis and test functions.
