Loop Antenna: Antenna Engineering CHO, Yong Heui

The document discusses loop antennas. It describes how loop antennas are the dual of electric dipole antennas based on Maxwell's equations. It provides the near field and far field components for a small loop antenna. It also discusses radiation power, resistance, types of loop antennas including one-wavelength loops, crystal loops, circular loops, and tuning techniques using gamma matching and capacitors.
