Experiment No 1 Aim:To Study The Basic Antenna Parameter Objective
DEPARTMENT OF EXTC
Experiment no 1
Objective:
Studying antenna parameters, Radiation pattern, Pattern beamwidth, Radiation
intensity, Directivity, Gain, radiation efficiency.
Theoretical Background:
HPBW: is the angle between two vectors, originating at the through these points of the
major lobe where the radiation intensity id half its maximum
FNBW: is the angle between two vectors, originating at the pattern's origin and tangent
to the main beam at its base. It is very often approximately true that FNBW≈ 2HPBW.
Radiation intensity U: in a given direction is the power per unit solid angle radiated in
this direction by the antenna.

There is a direct relation between the radiation intensity U and the radiation power density P
(that is pointing vector magnitude of the far field) since

The radiated power is related to the input power through a coefficient called radiation
efficiency:
Prad ePin
The beam solid angle ΩA :
Is the solid angle through which all the power of the antenna whould flow if its radiation
intensity were constant and equal to the maximum radiation intensity U0 for all angles
within ΩA.
