Spheroidal Near-Far-Field Transformation

Z. Mahani, A. Hakim, A. Ziyyat

Abstract


This work presents a Near Field or Far Field Transformation (NF-FF) into spheroidal coordinates systems. This transformation is used for the characterization of antennas and radiant structures. It allows the evaluation of the far Field starting from the taking of the Field in
closed surface on a spheroid enclosing all radiating sources, whether it is prolate or oblate.
The transformation suggested is based on a modal development into spheroidal waves. The vectorial wave equation not admitting an orthogonal solution in spheroidal coordinates, the method presented uses the rectangular components of the Field in the scalar wave equation, but expressed in spheroidal coordinates.

Disclaimer/Regarding indexing issue:

We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information. Also: DOI is paid service which provided by a third party. We never mentioned that we go for this for our any journal. However, journal have no objection if author go directly for this paid DOI service.
