I`ve already defended the radial mode helix, but think of almost any simple antenna. Doesn`t the half-wave dipole dradiate principally at right angles to its axis? Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI It doesw radiate at right angles of the axis but for maximumum radiation of a particular TYPE then the resultant maximum radiation vector is between ten and fifteen degrees from the ninety angle. The total radiation is the same at right angles as to that when tilted 10 degrees or more from that angle. If you play with the angles on any computor program including EZNEC I suppose, using a wavelength radiator, this is readily seen Remember, do not stray from the term "RESULTANT VECTOR" which is the subject of discussion.End of discussion Art Art |

You don't need to know the vector units to see that the resultant vector cannot be on the same axis as the radiator! Ofcourse the total amount of radiation does not change with tipping the radiator a few degrees, but what type of radiation with respect to polarisation that make up total radiation surely DOES. Now Terman did not mention that as he surely would have if it were true! Hoping you do not have a relapse with respect to my postings Regards Art Unwin KB9MZ |

What operation did you perform that it is the result of? 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

You start off with a vector along the axis of the radiator and by adding a couple more vectors which you feel is in order with the circumstaces and you come up with the resultant vector. Can you think of a appropiate situation where the resultant follows the same direction of the initial starting vector? One of the remaining vectors is at right angles to the axis and the other vector represents "curl" Regards Art |

Note that an elevation angle of zero degrees is at right angles to this radiator. Please explain how this validates the theory stated in your quote above.

"Field in mV/m for 1 kW at 1 km Elevation pattern----" Richard`s field strengths are consistent with Terman`s formula for field strength on page 864 of his 1955 opus, equation (23-1): E = 60pi/d (length/lambda) I cos theta (cos omega) (t-d/c) Theta is the vertical elevation angle and, of course, at zero degrees (the horizontal) cos theta =1, and at 90 degrees, cos theta = zero. This gives the field strength from an elementary vertical doublet as diagrammed on the next page. Omega is the angular frequency. I is the uniform current through the element. Terman says: "The laws governing such radiation are obtained by using Maxwell`s equations to express the fields associated with the wire; when this is done there is found to be a component, termed the radiated field, having a strength rhat varies inversely with distance." The 1/4-wave vertical along with its image in a perfect ground is shown on page 887 to have the same elevation pattern. Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI |

Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI Richard, For goodness sake read the operative word of this side thread. It is RESULTANT VECTORreferring to the summation of all vectors of a radiator. Every thing you are saying has no relavence to this term what so ever. Prove to the world yourself that maximum horizontal polarised radiation occurs when the radiator is parallel to the earths surface and be done with it. You surely are aware of antenna computor programs, use them or enquire. You are surely aware that physics have moved on in the last fifty years and you can't bury yourself or bring the past into the present because of your reluctance to change because of your work years experiences. You have a antenna computor program expert in this group whose program which is based on Maxwellian laws confirm that for maximum horizontal polarization the radiator is tipped away from the earth's surface with respect to parallism. These are not my laws, they are Maxwells. It is not my program design, it is Roy's. If you want to disagree with his programs findings take it up with him, (he stands by on this newsgroup solely to support EZNEC and welcomes questions) or any author of NEC2,NEC4 or mininec computor programs, all of which show the same results. Put away your Terman bible which represents the past and address the subject at hand today and throw away your resume of the past. Remember the subject key word " resultant vector" It is clear, it means what it says. It is not open to substitutions like substituting total gain for total horizontally polarized gain. Why O why do participants such as yourself want to elongate all threads by imposing deliberate deviations that reflect the decline of an aged brain and respective reading skills Regards Art Art |
