  In this paper, radiation due to standing wave currents are considered for the
electric dipole. Assumptions that wavelength is much smaller than the dipole
separation distance, which in turn is much smaller than the distance to the
point of observation, were employed. Results indicate that the electric dipole,
which now essentially is a linear antenna, emits both long range longitudinal
electric and transverse electromagnetic waves. Two systems were considered:
electric dipole with and without charge oscillations at its ends. Each system
was further divided into two sub-systems: with even and odd number of
half-wavelengths. For specific values of the system, longitudinal electric and
transverse electromagnetic waves, total radiated power, longitudinal to
transverse power ratio and radiation resistance were calculated and depicted.
