Effects caused by opening angle of a pyramidal horn antenna?

The opening angle of a pyramidal horn antenna is to match the impedance of the horn antenna to that of free space. With this enlargement of the dimension, the velocity of the wave travelling will decrease. This will increase the guide wavelength, which in turn increases the impedance of the horn. This gives an impedance value closer to that of free space there by giving better power transfer.


What are the uses of pyramidal horn antenna?

AnswerGAND MARAOpyramidal horn are antennas in which the walls of the rectangular wave guide are flarredin both e-plane & h-plane directions.applications:---> when there is a high gain requirement.--> when there is high directionality requirement.


What is effective length of half wave dipole antenna?

The effective length of a half-wave dipole antenna is typically about half the wavelength of the frequency it is designed to operate at. This means the antenna's total length is approximately ( \frac{468}{f(MHz)} ) feet, where ( f ) is the frequency in megahertz. For example, at 100 MHz, the half-wave dipole would be about 4.68 feet long. This length allows the antenna to resonate efficiently, maximizing its radiation pattern and performance.


How do you test a microstrip antenna?

A micro-strip antenna works on the principle of resonant cavity (short circuit walls on top and bottom, open circuit walls on the sides).A resonant cavity stores energy unlike transmission lines or wave guide which transmits electromagnetic energy from one part to another. A R.C is equivalent to LC device at low frequencies.


Why do radio waves with extremely long wavelengths such as ELF radio waves need huge antennas?

Answer: An antenna is a tuned circuit, so it have to be tuned to the wavelength of the signal that it will transmit. If the antenna is not tuned properly some of the transmitted power will be feed back to the transmitter and will damage the output stage, SWR (Standing Wave Ratio) is very important, that is the ratio between the power that is transmitted by the antenna and the power that is fed back to the transmitter a zero is ideal but not always possible.The lower the frequency the longer the wave length and a 1/4 wave length is the minimum length that will give one a good SWR. The formula to use when one design a antenna is 300/frequency in MHz, if the frequency is 30 MHz then it is 300/30 = 10 Meter divide it by 4 to get the length of the 1/4 wave antenna that is 2,5 meters.Note: The antenna have to be multiples of a 1/4 wavelength like 1/2 wave or full wave, a 5/8 length can be used but it will need a L/C circuit at the input of the antenna to tune it to the frequency.

Why are guide dogs unlikely to get excited when another dog approach?

Training. Guide dogs are trained not to get overly excited in most situations because they need to keep the person they are guiding safe.

The most appropriate value of the radiation resistance of a quarter wave monopole antenna?

The radiation resistance of a quarter-wave monopole antenna is typically around 36.6 ohms. This value is derived from the antenna's design and dimensions, and it represents the resistance the antenna presents to the flow of radiofrequency electromagnetic waves. It is an important parameter for matching the antenna to the transmission line and maximizing power transfer efficiency.
