In general, how does the gain of an antenna affect the vertical beamwidth of an omnidirectional antenna?
If the gain is increased, the vertical beamwidth gets more narrow
Statement:
Antenna polarization describes how the amplitude of the transmitted signal is oscillating from the antenna, for example horizontal or vertical polarization.
True
