The history of the Eiffel tower and the attached transmitting antenna in the 1898-1911 era is reviewed with particular attention to technical details involving antenna and tower dimensions, transmitter circuits, and observed performance. Using a scaled drawing constructed from available elevations of the tower and a ball chain simulation, a working model for analysis is shown along with an impedance sweep of the antenna. The resonant frequency is determined along with the capacitance, inductance, and radiation resistance. By comparing these results with those measured at the time, a clearer picture of the antenna is presented.
