…………… polarization is employed in FM broadcasting
Horizontal
…………… polarization is employed in AM broadcasting.
Vertical
An energy which radiates in the form of radio waves; infrared waves; light waves; x-rays; etc.
Electromagnetic
…………. is an antenna made up of a number of full wavelengths.
Long wire
When antennas are closed to the ground; ………….. polarization is ideal.
vertically polarized
makes an antenna physically long but electrically short.
Adding C in series
antennas is best excited from a waveguide

An ungrounded antenna near the ground acts s
antenna array
Good grounding is important for
vertical antennas
ratio of the maximum radiation intensity to the average radiation intensity?
Directivity gain
………….. is the angle between the half-power radiation points.
Beamwidth
What happens to the bandwidth of an antenna as it is shortened through the use of loading coils?
increased

VHF; UHF
If the current ratios of the two or more elements must be held 5% and the phase angle to 3 degrees; the antenna is called a
critical phased array
non-resonant antenna
Rhombic antenna
Very low signal strength in antenna.
