3.3. Computation of field quantities:


As the current densities obtained in the above three case radiate into an unbounded medium,
these can be used to compute fields in half-space as excited by apertures. The field behind S is
assumed know. This is enough to define equivalent surface currents. The process of finding the
field E and H is the same that has been adopted for wire antennas, in the previous chapters.
Because of this reason, here we will not discuss the entire derivation, but instead provide the
final equations.
From surface currents JS and MS, we get

(3.4)

In the far-field we take the following approximations:

R r r cos

for phase variations

(3.5)

for amplitude variations

(3.6)

Using equation (3.5) and (3.6) in equations (3.3) and (3.4), yields

where N equals

Also we can write F as

Once we have the far-field E and H, the other parameters of the aperture antenna can be found
out.
