The polar pattern for a half lambda aerial is a toroidal (doughnut) shape with the aerial in the centre of the toroid when mounted in free space a half wave above the ground.
The half wave is an omni-directional aerial and produces zero gain.

∙ 10y agoIt depends on how the bandwidth is measured, and how fat the dipole is.
A normal way of measuring banwidth is the input standing wave ratio (swr), and if the dipole is a perfect match at the resonant frequency, the edges of the bandwidth correspond to an swr of 2:1 (or other figure).
The bandwith can be expressed as a percentage of the resonant frequency.
For a typical thin wire dipole the bandwidth might be 5%. If the dipole is made of very thick wire, or a cage of parallel wires, the bandwith can be increased to 20 or 25%.

What is the half wave dipole?
effective height of half wave dipole antenna
What is the value of radiation resistance of half wavelength dipole antenna?
36 ohm
What is the operational frequency of half wave dipole antenna?
Its resonant frequency is where its length is half a wavelength, so for 100 MHz the wavelength is 3 metres and a 1.5-metre long dipole is resonant. A dipole antenna can be used for many applications within a band of 10-20% around the resonant frequency.
How loop antenna and dipole antenna can be used interchangeably?
A full-wave loop antenna can be interchanged with a folded dipole without much difference. The input impedance is similar and the only difference is in the directivity: a full wave loop radiates along the axis of the loop, while a vertical folded dipole is omnidirectional.

What is the difference between yagi antenna and dipole antenna?
I don't think it has. Bandwidth depends on the diameter to length ratio of the antenna. The greater the diameter of the elements the wider the bandwidth. The inductance goes down and the capacitance goes up, giving the antenna a lower Q. the folded dipole has a greater effective diameter (at least double for the same materials). You can increase a normal dipole's bandwidth by increasing the diameter, hence the old time birdcage aerials.

Is folded antenna nothing but the conical antenna?
A folded antenna is a dipole type.

Why dipole antenna not used for high frequency?
Depends on what you mean by high frequency. The rabbit ears antenna used in broadcast TV is a dipole and is used for VHF.
The type of antenna used for the television broadcasting?
Dipole
What is relation between antenna gain and beamwidth?
bandwidth refers to the amount of the frequency spectrum that a signal resides in.example, the spacing between channels on radio are determined by their bandwidth. beamwidth is a physical characteristic of an antenna. they generally mark the point bore sight of a directional antenna that are at -3dB or half power
What are the advantage of trap dipole antenna?
A dipole antenna, is a radio antenna that can be made of a simple wire, with a center-fed driven element. It consists of two metal conductors of rod or wire, oriented parallel and collinear with each other (in line with each other), with a small space between them. The radio frequency voltage is applied to the antenna at the center, between the two conductors. These antennas are the simplest practical antennas from a theoretical point of view. They are used alone as antennas, notably in traditional "rabbit ears" television antennas, and as the driven element in many other types of antennas, such as the Yagi. Dipole antennas were invented by German physicist Heinrich Hertz around 1886 in his pioneering experiments with radio waves.
