Abstract
The radiation properties of an axially slotted elliptical antenna partly embedded in a ground plane are investigated. The analysis carried out by expressing the field outside the antenna structure (free space) in terms of elliptic Mathieu functions. Boundary conditions for the vanishing tangential electric field at the conductor surface; except at the slot location; and the ground interface are employed to solve for the unknown expansion coefficients. Numerical results are presented in graphical form for the transverse magnetic (TM) case to illustrate the radiation pattern, the aperture conductance, and the antenna gain.
