a) is correct.
Note that the Parabolic antenna may have lower gain than yagi, if BOTH have a gain below about 8-10 dB, AND are of SIMILAR size.
Tp put it another way, Parabolic dish has to be large ... |

I like to think of an antenna as a transformer that idealy converts 50 ohms to 377 ohms ( impedance of air).
A single length of 1/100th wavelength cant do this, BUT we can always at some RF componen ... |

Lambda in water could be up to 1/10th that of that in air.

300 ohm line probably wont work well due to losses at 2.4 GHz. It doesnt like being near any other metal, and may even radiate a little
Personally, If short on antenna-making suppies , Id consider th ... |

Forum: Questions Related to Antenna Theory Posted: Tue Feb 23, 2010 10:55 am Subject: Where's the energy going? |
| This seems an unusual situation ( for typical RF circuits). My first thought is this: are you designing to somehow absorb the energy sent into the coil (S11) ? If S11 is low, then power flows in, but ... |
