Types of Antennas
Outline:
· Loop Antennas
· Aperture Antennas
· Horn Antennas
· Reflector Antennas
· So, the above equations show the electric & magnetic field
of the radiated wave due to the current.
· The terms W'e and W'm represent the radial electric and
magnetic energy density flow through the spherical
surface S.

2 km from an antenna in air. Neglecting ohmic loss, how much
power must the antenna transmit if it is a:
a. Hertzian dipole of length λ/60?
b. half-wave dipole?
Solution:
a. For a Hertzian dipole, we have :
