3) A certain antenna with an efficiency of 95% has maximum radiation intensity of 0.5 W/sr. Calculate its directivity when
(a) The input power is 0.4 W
(b) The radiated power is 0.3 W

SOLUTION:

a)

5) Determine the maximum effective area of a Hertzian dipole of length 10 cm operating at 10 MHz. If the antenna receives 3 µW of power, what is the power density of the incident wave?
SOLUTION:



For the hertzian dipole,

Gd = 1.5 sin2 θ




By definition, Pr = Ae Pave

Circular Cylindrical Coordinate System (ρ, φ, z) - Field Theory.

Image
A Vector in Cylindrical system is represented as (A ρ , A φ , A z ) or A = A ρ a ρ + A φ a φ + A z a z Where a ρ , a φ and a z are the unit vectors in ρ, φ and z direction respectively. The physical significance of each parameter of cylindrical coordinates:      - The value ρ indicates the distance of the point from the z-axis. It is the radius of the cylinder .      - The value φ, also called the azimuthal angle , indicates the rotation angle around the z-axis. It is basically measured from the x axis in the x-y plane. It is measured anti-clockwise.      - The value z indicates the distance of the point from z-axis. It is the same as in the Cartesian system. In short, it is the height of the cylinder. Range of the variables: It defines the minimum and the maximum value that ρ, φ and z can have in Cartesian system.  0 ≤ ρ ≤ ∞  0 ≤ φ ≤ 2π - ∞ ≤ z ≤ ∞   Figure shows Point P and Unit vectors in Cylindrical Co-ordinate System.

Electric Field Intensity (E) Due To a Circular Ring Charge - Field Theory.

Image
- Consider a circular ring of radius 'a' which carries a uniform line charge density ρ L as shown in figure. - We need to find out electric field at a point P (0, 0, h) on the z axis (z > 0). - Electric field intensity (E) due to any line charge (ρ L ) in general is given as: In this case, dl = a dφ (Since the differential part dl is a differential arc ) R 2 = a 2 + h 2 Consider the triangle shown in the above figure a a ρ + R = h a z → R = - a a ρ + h a z a R = R / | R | a R = - a a ρ + h a z / ( a 2 + h 2 ) 1/2 Substituting all these values in the above equations, the electric field intensity E becomes: - For every element dl there is a corresponding element diametrically opposite that gives an equal but opposite dE ρ so that the two contributions cancel each other. Hence contribution along a ρ due to symmetry adds up to zero. - Therefore the final electric field intensity at point (0, 0, h) has

Electric Potential (V) Due To A Uniformly Charged Circular Disc - Field Theory.

Image
- Consider a circular disc of radius ‘a’ which carries a uniform surface charge density ρ s , C /m 2 . - Say the disk lies on x - y plane (or z = 0 plane) with its axis along the z axis as shown in the figure. - We need to find out electric potential (V) due to a circular disk at a point P (0, 0, h) on the z axis (z > 0). - Electric potential (V) at a point due to any surface charge (ρ s ) is given as: - In this case, ds = ρ dρ dφ (Since it’s a disc, the varying terms are radius ρ and angle φ ) R = (ρ 2 + h 2 ) 1/2 - Hence electric potential (V) is given as: - On solving further the equation becomes - As a → 0 , electric potential (V) also tends to zero i.e. V → 0. - Hence the electric potential at point (0, 0, h) is given as: ALSO READ:  - Gauss's Law - Theory. - Gauss's Law - Application To a Point charge. - Gauss's Law - Application To An Infinite Line Charge. - Gauss's
