Background: This study deals with the derivation of expressions for the current distribution and the input admittance of a circular loop antenna (CLA) over a lossy Earth in a series form. Methods: The analysis is based on the image method, Fourier series expansion and the direct integration of the vector potential. Result: The results for the current distribution of the study are in very good agreement with those corresponding results available in the literature, which checks the correctness of the formulations of the study. Conclusion: The provided solution in this paper is simple, straightforward and can be applied without performing any numerical integrations, which makes it preferred compared to the numerical solutions that are available in the literature.

Fractional calculus techniques (non-integer order systems) have been successfully applied in many fields of electronics and engineering. In this paper the effects of including fractional order electronic components on the radiated antenna pattern of a circular loop antenna is presented. A fractional order “RLC” impedance matching circuit is placed between the generator and the equivalent circuit of a loop antenna. The input impedance of the antenna and the antenna gain are controllable through varying the fractional orders of an inductive element and a capacitive element (Fractors) in the matching network. The circuit is presented and solved analytically, and some numerical simulations follow. We discuss the effects of fractional order components on the resulting radiation patterns. In particular, the amplitude of the antenna gain is controlled by the fractional order parameters. This effect could be exploited in future for antenna beam-forming applications when using an array of antenna elements. Further, the input impedance of the antenna circuit can also be controlled by the fractional order components. The introduction of fractional order variables provides for higher degrees of freedom, enabling a flexible approach to tuning antennas for optimal performance.
