Q. Calculate the radiation resistance of a short dipole (with a triangular current distribution) of length 0.3 m operating at 100 MHz. If the total resistance of the antenna is 2.2 Ω, calculate the maximum effective area and the radiation efficiency of the dipole. Calculate the open circuit voltage induced at the terminals of the dipole if it is oriented along the z - direction and the incident electric field at the dipole is Ei = (ax 4 + ay 3 + az 5) V/m.
Estimate the diameter of a paraboloidal reflector antenna required to produce null beamwidth of 10o at 3 GHz.
"If a receiving antenna has a gain of 26 dB, calculate its effective capture area (m^2) if its operating at 1.7 GHz. Enter only the numerical value. No need for the unit. Use four decimal places (if the answer is not an integer)."
