Here is the equation for transmitting loop design (from Army EMC Handbook 
DARCOM-P 706-410):

H = NIa^2/{2(a^2 + r^2)^3/2,

where N = number of turns,
I = loop current,
a = loop diameter in meters,
r = distance along loop axis from center of loop, in meters.
H is in Amps/meter.

A discussion of receive loop design may be found in the attachment, which is
excerpted from my book.
