Effect of Transverse Feed Displacement on Input Impedance of Asymmetric Dipole Antenna

Abstract

In the last decade the displaced feed system of centre-fed dipoles has been the subject of many papers. However, little attention has been paid to the displaced system as applied to the asymmetrically driven dipoles. With a fair possibility that such a displaced system would be useful in constructing a new type of broad band antenna, the present paper has been aimed at calculating the input impedance (Zin), which needs a prior attention before investigating of the antenna system under the consideration. The present communication deals with a simple technique of calculating the input impedance.
