Not being an RF engineer, I need to know the dimensions of the reflector for
a double bi-quad antenna for a wireless lan link (two wire bowties placed in front a flat plate reflector - here is a quad bi-quad: http://www.frars.org.uk/cgi-bin/rend...62&goback=1064). This is how I see it (I may be wrong), any wires that have no sheild will act as a radiator, so if the length is a wavelength or wavelength divided by 2,4,8 etc (ie speed of light in air/frequency, 300,000,000ms/2,440,000,000hz = 0.123meters), then the wave is not disturbed and continues along its path. The biquad is a piece of wire 244mm(2 wavelengths) long folded into 2 squares, so I guess you have 8 radiators. So to connect 2 biquads or patch panels together the wire below would have to be 123mm long and connect to the coax in the centre. Therefore a double biquad would be 123 x 244mm, but I need someone to confirm this. The radiator part I think is OK, its the reflector size and raditor spacing I am not sure about. Cheers Rob |
