Abstract
The Letter deals with the analysis of a disc monopole with the method of moments (MOM) procedure using triangular cells. An accurate annular ring of magnetic currents models the feeding connector. This techniqu e avoids the introduction of an attachment mode at the antenna-to-SMA connector junction. This method gives the theoretical input impedance of a disc monopole within a wide frequency band. Measurements and theo ry are in good agreement.
