  2. Radiation resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_resistance

    This is not obvious from the formulas in the table because the different lengths use the same symbol, ; the derived monopole antenna, however, is only half the length of the original dipole antenna. This can be shown by calculating the radiation resistance of a short dipole (length ), which is twice the length of the corresponding monopole ( ):

  3. Dipole antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipole_antenna

    The G5RV antenna is a dipole antenna fed indirectly, through a carefully chosen length of 300 Ω or 450 Ω twin lead, which acts as an impedance matching network to connect (through a balun) to a standard 50 Ω coaxial transmission line. The sloper antenna is a slanted vertical dipole antenna attached to the top of a single tower. The element ...

  4. Dipole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipole

    The size of the induced dipole moment is equal to the product of the strength of the external field and the dipole polarizability of ρ. Dipole moment values can be obtained from measurement of the dielectric constant. Some typical gas phase values given with the unit debye are: [7] carbon dioxide: 0; carbon monoxide: 0.112 D; ozone: 0.53 D

  5. Electrical length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_length

    As the length of an antenna is made shorter than its fundamental resonant length (a half-wavelength for a dipole antenna and a quarter-wavelength for a monopole), the radiation resistance the antenna presents to the feedline decreases with the square of the electrical length, that is the ratio of physical length to wavelength, (/). As a result ...

  6. Near and far field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near_and_far_field

    For such an antenna, the near field is the region within a radius r ≪ λ, while the far-field is the region for which r ≫ 2 λ. The transition zone is the region between r = λ and r = 2 λ . The length of the antenna, D, is not important, and the approximation is the same for all shorter antennas (sometimes idealized as so-called point ...

  7. Log-periodic antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log-periodic_antenna

    A log-periodic antenna (LP), also known as a log-periodic array or log-periodic aerial, is a multi-element, directional antenna designed to operate over a wide band of frequencies. It was invented by John Dunlavy in 1952. The most common form of log-periodic antenna is the log-periodic dipole array or LPDA, The LPDA consists of a number of half ...

  8. Radiation pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_pattern

    In the field of antenna design the term radiation pattern (or antenna pattern or far-field pattern) refers to the directional (angular) dependence of the strength of the radio waves from the antenna or other source. [1][2][3] Particularly in the fields of fiber optics, lasers, and integrated optics, the term radiation pattern may also be used ...

  9. Electric dipole moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_dipole_moment

    The electric dipole moment is a measure of the separation of positive and negative electrical charges within a system: that is, a measure of the system's overall polarity. The SI unit for electric dipole moment is the coulomb - meter (C⋅m). The debye (D) is another unit of measurement used in atomic physics and chemistry.
