Radiation Pattern:
An antenna radiation pattern or antenna
pattern is defined as a mathematical
function or a graphical representation of
the radiation properties of the antenna as
a function of space coordinates.
Beamwidth:
The beamwidth of an antenna is a very important
Types of beamwidth:
Radiation Intensity:
Radiation intensity in a given direction is defined as
the power radiated from an antenna per unit solid angle.
The radiation intensity is a far-field parameter.
It can be obtained by simply multiplying the radiation
density by the square of the distance.
Directivity:
Polarisation:
Polarization is the curve traced by the end point of the
