Chapter 34, Problem 59GP
Consider the antenna army of Example 34–5, Fig. 34–15. Let d = λ/2, and suppose that the two antennas are now 180° out or phase with each other. Find the directions for constructive and destructive interference, and compare with the case when the sources are in phase. (These results illustrate the basis for directional antennas.)
