For long distance radiation of an array antenna consisting of 5 Hertz dipoles located vertically at d=?/2 intervals along the Y-axis; (a) Subtract the expressions sequence factor (AF) and sequence pattern (pattern product). (b) Calculate the phases of the array elements to be fed in order to shift the radiation beam to the angle of ?0=90°, ?0=30°. (c) Suggest an appropriate method for suppressing the lateral lobe (ear) levels of the array radiation pattern.

Step 1
Step 1: Calculate the spacing between the dipoles Given that the dipoles are located vertically at d/2 intervals along the Y-axis, we can calculate the spacing between the dipoles using the formula: Spacing (d) = λ/2 where λ is the wavelength of the radiation. Show more…

Antenna Radiation The radiation from a transmitting antenna is not uniform in all directions. The intensity from a particular antenna is modeled by $r=a \cos ^{2} \theta .$ (a) Convert the polar equation to rectangular form. (b) Use a graphing utility to graph the model for $a=4$ and $a=6 .$ (c) Find the area of the geographical region between the two curves in part (b).

Problem 3.18: A two-element array consisting of two isotropic antennas separated by a distance d along the z-axis is placed in a coordinate system whose z-axis points eastward and whose x-axis points toward the zenith. If a0 and a1 are the amplitudes of the excitations of the antennas at z = 0 and at z = d, respectively, and if ̷̸͆ is the phase of the excitation of the antenna at z = d relative to that of the other antenna, find the array factor and plot the pattern in the x-z plane for the following: (a) a0 = a1 = 1, ̷̸͆ = ̓̀/4, and d = ̷͂/2 (b) a0 = 1, a1 = 2, ̷̸͆ = 0, and d = ̷͂
