High Frequency Characteristics of Impedances to Ground And Field Distributions of Ground Electrodes

High frequency characteristics of impedances to ground and field distributions of ground electrodes are calculated by the current simulation method together with the method of images. Numerical calculations concerning some typical electrodes are shown. An expression for approximating impedances to ground from corresponding dc resistances is proposed and errors are estimated.
