QUESTION 1
A 1-m long dipole antenna is driven by a 150 MHz source having a source resistance
of 50 ohms and a voltage of 100 V. If the ohmic resistance of the antennas is given by
RL = 0.625 ohms, find the:

QUESTION 3
A mobile phone is located 5 km away from a base station. It uses a vertical l / 4 monopole antenna
with a gain of 2.55 dB to receive cellular radio signals. The free space E-field at 1 km from the
transmitter is measured to be 10-3 V/m. The carrier frequency used for this system is f = 900MHz.
(a) Find the length and effective aperture of the receiving antenna.

QUESTION 4
A base station transmits a power of 10 W into a feeder cable with a loss of 10 dB. The transmit
antenna has a gain of 12 dBd (dBd refers to a l /2 dipole) in the direction of a mobile receiver, with
antenna gain 0 dBd and feeder loss 2 dB. The mobile receiver has a sensitivity of –104 dBm.
