Cylindrical antennas are well‐suited for military ultra‐wide band (UWB) applications. In this article, we evaluate energy‐based descriptors for three relevant types of cylindrical dipoles, including a novel stacked antenna. We show that the energy‐based analysis provide a more realistic view on the transient radiation than the classical frequency‐domain analysis. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
