Determination of the minimum convex source region from the electromagnetic far-field pattern

Determination of the minimum convex source region from the electromagnetic far-field pattern

In a previous paper, a simple method was derived for determining the minimum convex closed surface in which the sources of a given scalar acoustic far‐field pattern can be located. In the present paper, we derive the corresponding method for determining the minimum convex surface for a vector electr...

Zusammenfassung:In a previous paper, a simple method was derived for determining the minimum convex closed surface in which the sources of a given scalar acoustic far‐field pattern can be located. In the present paper, we derive the corresponding method for determining the minimum convex surface for a vector electromagnetic far‐field pattern. We apply the method to find the minimum source region for the far‐field pattern of a circular‐disk antenna.
