Abstract

Maxwell’s equation on an integral note with time dependency as a condition and angular frequency as a tool forms application in many areas of electromagnetism. Maxwell’s equation in phasor and integral forms aids in surface area and volume measurements in terms of contour representation. This paper focuses on improving the aspects of a less resonant small loop antenna which is a characteristic of magnetization. Electric field features with an inherent property of plane waves that pervades in all directions within the surface become an important tool for analyzing various parameters of this loop antenna. The laid-out boundary conditions over the surface form an important part in solving the problem. Problem proceeds with an initial value of directivity and existing radiation pattern. Application of finite element method to this small loop antenna is the theme of the paper. This will help in solving the computational domain over the surface area by assigning triangular meshes and truncation schemes. Further application of conjugate gradient method to the elements on the surface will show the improved performance of the loop antenna.
