This last part returns us to the discussion of isotropism which encompasses the topic of Lambert's Law which is generally confined to a black body radiator (or the sun from a great distance as it fails to be isotropic in the near view, such as we have here on earth). Few here need concern themselves with this unless they are making patch antennas. However, within the discussion above, the topic of view, angle, and radiation contribution are wrapped up in Lambert and cosine. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

However I find his posting to be rewarding . The present aproach to radiation is that a free electron is torn away from the nucleous of an atom which creates uncertaincy. Such an action is that of the strong force which is akin the the splitting of an atom where such an action would release electrons such that they would bombard electrical networks such as in Hawaii. When one uses Maxwells equations it becomes very obvious that with decreasing impeadance radiation increases until we get to the point of zero impedance where reality is forced to be reviewed. Since we now recognize that radiation is not created by the radiator itself as it is only a carrier of a radiator, the model used must be of cylinder type of homogeonos free electrons where removal of the free electrons/particles is by a "weak force" and not a strong force. Thus in reality the model to be used is that of a cylinder where the "stiction" of each electron,(I should really keep to the term particle so one does not automatically insert neutrinos or a subset of leptons) to a diamagnetic material is effectively replaced by a hoop stress which first showed up in the boundary of the "Big Bang". Now we have something that meets reality, where increase in current applied creates an increase in radiation and where the model is seen to be a boundary consisting of particles bound to each other! This is basically implied by Maxwell's equations as illustrated by the computer programs where radiation increase is proportional to the decrease of impedance of the energy robbing metallic radiator and where cylindrical boundary model increases it's share of the current applied for continued radiation and still is in concert with known laws without resorting to extreme low temperature to attain "zero impedance" which lacks reality. As a side note. It is the arbitrary boundary in shear (spin) which provides the Weak Force of the Standard Model as foreseen by Einstein when he took on his fruitless search. And it would appear that the reversal of the positive sign of the shown "Radio World" material is somewhat supporting of this posting but that should be the subject of a separate thread. Art Unwin |

The first term in the antenna impedance specification in a practical antenna consists mainly of radiation resistance -- which is required in order for radiation to occur. Radiation resistance is a function of the electrical length, diameter and form of the radiator exposed to space. If it is zero then there is no radiation. Higher radiation resistances lead to higher efficiencies for the antenna SYSTEM, because then the power radiated can be much greater than what is dissipated in the relatively smaller I^2R losses of the system.

Art Unwin I might add that this solves a nagging problem of mine. What is normally referred to as a "half wave" is in reality the equivalent of a "full wave folded dipole" where the particle sleeve represents the other half of a wave length ( see "U" antenna mentioned by Richard) Of course the inner element formally seen as a radiator takes on its true form of a carrier only but does provide for the required equilibrium even tho the lumped load capacitance area in between "has disappeared" or the equivalent of cancellation of lumped loads to provide maximum efficiency while accounting for all forces involved. This now completely solves the radiation problem, that has lasted a Century, in compliance with all existing laws. as well as being suplimented by the Gaussian extention . The above also solves the identification of the Weak Force which provided completion of the Standard Model as envisioned by Einstein. All is now of a proven nature UNTIL my peers can point to where it deviates from existing laws of Classical Physics. It has been fun over the years exposing the self perceived psuedo experts of this newsgroup as well as exposing to the World those who follow and quote only books in the effort to resist change. Bottom line is. If you can't develop a theme from first principles you are just a follower and not a true Engineer. Art Unwin KB9MZ....XG(UK) |

Yes that is normally true but how many people at the table has asked for the salt when it was right in frony of them? Anyone can develop and publicize a theme about the operation of antennas. I consider that a difficult task without running into trouble with existing laws. Scientifically PROVING that such a theme is correct takes a true "Engineer." When you deliver a theme or paper in front of college graduates, professionals and above, one assumes that they are fully aware of the basic laws involved. Since your only connection to antenna engineering is the repetitive pushing the "on" and "off" button at a local radio station as its resident engineer it is more than possible that you have not had a academic training. Your past posts gives some truth to that statement, tho it is possible that I will have to stand corrected if, as with many, age has taken its toll. As you have stated in the past .. "your move"! Point to a law that I have violated of which you learned about in academia. Alternatively ask the question from your local academic centre where interllectuals reside who have more knowledge of such things than either of us will ever attain. As for me I am at peace with my offering and thus can move on until a violation of law is presented. RF |
