Antenna Data
Radio frequency currents flowing in an antenna element
creates a magnetic field around the conductor. This
magnetic field radiates through space and induces a
small current in any conductor it passes.
The small current created in the receiving antenna of
interest is processed by the radio receiver to accomplish
the required task.

Antenna Data

•
Transmit and receive antennas’ elements must be
aligned in the same direction
Antenna gain is stated as gain relative to a reference
antenna
Reference “antenna” is a point (isotropic) source
which radiates in a perfect sphere
Gain is achieved by distorting the perfect sphere to
radiate more in a given direction
The isotropic antenna is assigned a gain of 1
Practical antennas have their gain referenced to the
isotropic source.

Antenna Data
• The gain of an antenna, in a given direction, can be
defined as “for a given input power, the gain of an
antenna is the power radiated by the antenna divided by
the power radiated by an isotropic source.”
• Gain is usually expressed in decibels which is expressed
by Gain = 10log (power radiated by antenna) / (power
radiated by isotropic source). An i indicates gain relative
to an isotropic source (dBi).
• For a gain of 2
10log(2/1) = 10 X 0.3 = 3dBi
• For a gain of 10
10log(10/1) = 10 X 1 = 10dBi
• Antennas are perfectly reciprocal – Gain is the same for
transmitting and receiving.
