Abstract
Theory and experiment of spherical aperture-coupled antennas with parasitic elements are presented in this paper. Current distributions on slot and conformal patches are calculated using spatial domain electric and magnetic Dyadic Green's Functions (DGFs). Electromagnetic fields for such a structure have been calculated with the aid of linear Rao-Wilton-Glisson (RWG) triangular basis functions and by converting spherical DGFs to Cartesian DGFs. In order to validate the proposed method, a prototype of this antenna is fabricated and tested. The effect of parasitic element on antenna characteristics such as gain and radiation pattern is investigated. Good agreement between the results shows accuracy and high convergence speed of the presented method.
