Abstract

As an approximation of an electric multipole expansion of a source whose length is comparable with the wavelength, the simulation of a Center-Fed Linear Antenna on Mathematica was performed. Knowing the voltage distribution by the antenna, electromagnetic fields, the polarization vector and the distribution of average power per solid angle unit are calculated.
