4 prer.ioirsl). introduced tcditiiqiie to compute the radiation of a miuo.c.tnp pntcli oritenria on II qlitidncal body of arbitran cross Jectioti is i..xtended to inclirde patch antennas mounted on complex, tliree-dimensional hodies. The techniqire iwoli es using the finite-element tnerhod f FEMl to churactenze the patch antennas, and then computing the r-udiution pattern with the i r e of the reciprocih tlieorem and the sliooritig mid bouncing rux (SBRI method with ed,ge difiaction. The i,alidi& of the culciilation and ihe need f o r at7 exremion to three dimensions is showti by conipanson with nieasirrd clatu for a n.ai.egiiirle-fed trihedral. Other calculatiorir show the effrcts of the external geometty on the radiation puiteni of a tnicrostp patch anterina.
