Abstract
- In this paper, we developed an analytical model that makes it possible to estimate the response (i.e., the voltage or current at the output) of a dipole antenna to arbitrary-shaped electromagnetic pulse if the minimum information about the antenna is available (it is enough to know the following parameters of the antenna: working frequency range, gain, and wave impedance of the radiofrequency port). The developed model is validated by comparing the computed responses of VHF- and UHF-band dipole antennas to wideband electromagnetic pulses with the measurement results published in the literature. The validation demonstrates that the model estimates the values of the most important antenna-response parameters (total energy, amplitude, and voltage rate), which define the requirements to the radio-equipment terminal protection devices, with reasonable accuracy. The possibilities of increasing the response estimation accuracy by numerical modeling of the antenna are investigated (MoM and FDTD methods are involved).
