The Radiation Q-Factor of a Horizontal \lambda/2 Dipole Above Ground Plane

Closed-form equations are given for radiation quality factor of a thin-wire λ/2 dipole above an infinite electric ground plane. Particular results of interest include a simple formula for a small separation between the dipole and the ground and for one dipole in free space.
