New cards

The polarization of a patch antenna can be changed by changing

the feeding point location

2
New cards

The uncertainty in the permittivity of the substrate has a high impact on the patch

operational frequency

3
New cards

The narrow bandwidth of a patch antenna is due to

the similarity to a cavity and resonant condition

4
New cards

The efficiency of a patch antenna is

around 30%

5
New cards

The main advantage of microstrip antennas is

their convenience of fabrication and integration with circuits

6
New cards

The fact of obtaining in the process a value of W>L

It is not important as the feeding in the middle of W makes that the lowest resonance is defined by L

7
New cards

How is the physical length of the patch in relation to the length of a corresponding cavity?

shorter

8
New cards

If I wish to keep the same operational frequency with a laminate with higher permittivity I should

decrease L

9
New cards

The formulas to calculate the effective permittivity of the patch and the line are

dependent on the W/h ratio of the antenna and the line respectively

10
New cards

The starting point of the design process is

W

11
New cards

The magnetic field on the aperture

has a electric field associated that is actually Ea

12
New cards

The electric fields in an elemental aperture

are uniform (constant) in all the aperture

13
New cards

The maximum radiatied power density of an elemental aperture is in the direction

Theta=0o

14
New cards

In the mathematical calculation of the radiated power of an elemental aperture

it is assumed that the aperture radiates in the whole 3D space

15
New cards

The directivity of the elemental aperture

is always 4.77 dBi no matter the field value

16
New cards

The maximum directivity of a horn happens when

the product of Aphy x eta_ap is maximum

17
New cards

The directivity of a non uniform aperture depends on

The physical area of the aperture and the level of uniformity of the field in the aperture

18
New cards

For a particular operational frequency in a E-plane horn antenna, if we increase the dimension a

it depends on the original value of a

19
New cards

The orientation (polarization) of the radiated field of a horn

is the same as the mode of the waveguide from which it is derived

20
New cards

For a particular operational frequency in a E-plane horn antenna, if we increase the Le for the same area of the aperture

The directivity increases

21
New cards

If the primary source of a parabolic reflector is a pyramidal horn antenna with the longest dimension being horizontal

The polarization of the reflector is vertical

22
New cards

The basic principle of a reflector antenna is

to make the reflected rays interference constructive by managing path length differences

23
New cards

What of these structures is not a reflector antenna?

a patch antenna

24
New cards

A typical reflector directivity is

35 dBi

25
New cards

The directivity of a reflector antenna

is higher than the primary source

26
New cards

The focal distance is

the r ́ distance from the origin to the point of the paraboloid with theta'=0 condition

27
New cards

Beta is

the maximum angle theta' that covers the paraboloid

28
New cards

The three geometric variables that univocally define a parabolic reflector are

Dr, f and beta

29
New cards

When symmetry happens around z axis in a parabolic reflector

The geometry does not depend on phi

30
New cards

The sweeps of angles thar cover the whole parabolic reflector are

phi' between 0 and 2pi and theta' between 0 and beta

31
New cards

Las pérdidas por reflexión en el suelo

Dependen de la altura de las antenas

32
New cards

La reflexión en el suelo puede dar origen a un aumento de la señal recibida

Verdadero

33
New cards

En la estimación de las pérdidas por reflexión en el suelo …

Se aproxima el coeficiente de reflexión en el suelo

34
New cards

Las pérdidas de enlace crecen con la frecuencia

Si la ganancia es aproximadamente constante con la frecuencia

35
New cards

La ecuación de Transmisión de Friis es válida

En campo lejano y en espacio libre

36
New cards

El radio de las zonas de Fresnel…

Depende de la posición relativa del obstáculo con respecto a las antenas

37
New cards

La ionosfera

Permite comunicación a grandes distancias

38
New cards

La atenuación por lluvia

Se puede estimar utilizando una atenuación por distancia con datos de normas

39
New cards

La atenuación por onda de superficie

Es importante a bajas frecuencias

40
New cards

La absorción molecular

Es importante a altas frecuencias
