In this paper, an analysis method for calculating balanced and unbalanced modes of a small antenna is summarized. Modal condactances which relate dissipated power of the antenna are directly obtained from standard S-parameters that we can measure by a 2-port network analyzer. We demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method by simulation and measurement for a dipole antenna with unbalaned feed. The ratio of unbalanced-mode power to the total power (unbalanced-mode power ratio) calculated by the proposed method agrees precisely with that yielded by the conventional method using measured radiation patterns. Furthermore, we analyze a small loop antenna with unbalanced feed by the proposed method and show that the self-balancing characteristic appears when the loop is set in resonant state by loading capacitances or the whole length of the loop is less than 1/20th the wavelength.
