To decrease antenna height
For transmitting a signal of wavelength
λ the antenna height must be λ/4. So if we want to send a 1 Hz (λ=3*10^8 m) signal ( very very low frequency) using an antenna , its height must be 75,000 Km ( impossible to build such a huge antenna ). If the same signal is modulated to some high frequency say 88 MHZ ( λ = 3.4 m ) , antenna height needed is 0.8522 m (quite easy to construct !!! ) (88 MHZ is the starting range of Frequency modulation which exists upto 108 MHZ).
It depends on antenna type.
Input impedance
If we consider a dipole, the first resonant frequency (where input impedance is real, so you have an easier matching with the circuit) is f0=c/(2L), where c is light speed in the media (approx. 3*10^8 m/s in vacuum or air) and L is dipole length. Imaginary part of the input impedance has a slight dependance on antenna radius, but when antenna is resonant, input impedance is real.
In a microwave circuit, you have to match circuitry and antenna with a filter (to maximize power transfer from circuit to antenna). So, you choose antenna's geometry to match maximum power transfer (transmission line impedance equals antenna's input resistance) and cancel the imaginary part of antenna input impedance (see stubs, lambda/4 adaptors, etc) to minimize losses and standing waves across the line.
Distance of link is related to signal frequency by friis formula:
Prx=Ptx*Gtx*Grx*(lambda/(4*pi*d))^2, where
Prx: Power captured by receiving antenna (gain Grx)
Ptx: Power irradiated by transmitting antenna (gain Gtx)
lambda: (lambda=light speed in media / frequency) transmitted signal wavelength
d: antennas distance
pi: 3.14 =)
So, antenna geometry affects input impedance (and radiation characteristics).
Input impedance affects Prx and Ptx (P=Z*I^2=V^2/Z, Z: input impedance).
In the end, varying antenna diameter affects input impedance
Input impedance affects matching.
Matching is necessary, so you have to choose the right antenna diameter to have a good matching and maximum power transfer, say maximum distance d.
If you want more details, you can take a look at Orfanidis' book (chapter 16-21),
for input impedance of linear antennas
In a shotgun shell, it tells the number of round pellets that combine to make a linear inch.
The wavelength is the size of the wave in meters. The frequency is the number of waves that occur in a scond.
None at all than we can think of. 'Velocity' means the speed and direction of motion. 'Area' means the size or extent of a flat surface.
It depends upon the type of antenna. For example, a Yagi antenna's gain can be increased by adding elements. A parabolic antenna's gain can be increased by increasing the diameter of the antenna. All antennas can have their gain increased by lowering the loss of the feed line. By replacing regular coaxial cable with nitrogen pressurized coax, the overall gain at the receiving end can be increased. Gain can also be increased by inserting an amplifier between the antenna and the receiver. Another method of increasing gain is to reduce the VSWR, or voltage standing wave ratio.
While designing an industrial blower, how can one assess as to what should be the size of the housing, Impeller and number of blades of an impeller. An answer will much appreciated.
no relationship
The size of the dish isn't as important as the length of the antenna. The antenna is INSIDE the little can at the focus of the dish. The length of the antenna is tuned to the wavelength of the frequency being received.
There is no relation between the resistor's ohms value and its size. The power of the resistor can be seen by its size. If the power is too small, the resistor can be destroyed.
A thin antenna has nothing to do with the physical size of the antenna. Any antenna whose length is less than (1/10) of the wavelength of the signal is thin antenna. A linear antenna is one in which the current distribution is linear or bears a linear relationship with some parameter, say voltage of the antenna...... Mukesh
No. There is no relationship between the size of your penis and any other part of your body. In the past people have suggested relationships between the sizes of feet, hands or the length of noses being linked to penis size but there is no evidence for any link to any other part of the body.
Yes, a UHF antenna can pick up VHF signals, but not well. The size difference makes the uhf antenna "inefficient" for the longer vhf wave length, but some energy can be received by the uhf antenna.
depends how big your foot is ;)
There is no relation between size and foreskin
It has a lot to do with the age of the player in relation to the length of the arm. An adult, with an arm 26" or longer would use a full size bow of 29.25". A 6/7 year old with an arm length of about 20" would use a bow length 24.5" Between this age and the adult age, a 27" length is usual. Under normal circumstances, a 15" viola would need a full size bow
RFID size is normally determined by the size and configuration of the antenna, not the actual RFID integrated circuit. Hitachi sells chips with low-performance internal antennas that are the size of a table salt crystal. Most RFID tags are between 20 and 100 mm in length/width and very thin.
There is no relationship. NPS is based on inches.
From a sample of a population, the properties of the population can be inferred.
