If antenna has only one source it is omnidirectional. If two or more is directional because the waves from different sources interfere. More study is needed on your part, S*. Consult the textbooks of the authors that already have been listed, and quoted here. Your unproven, personal opinions are not sufficient to support some of the statements you post-- which accounts for the "negative" comments responding to them. Every single real-world antenna in existence has more than one source along its length that contributes to its radiation pattern, and therefore has some directionality. Your study and accurate understanding of the works of the authors mentioned will prove this. RF |

I assume from what you posted before that you meant to write "in a monopole antenna there is one strong source on the END..." Could you please post the reason(s) you think so? Note that only the change in current and charge, over time, produces EM radiation. At the top of a monopole, and at the ends of a dipole the net current is almost zero -- so those locations generate very little of the total EM radiation from these antennas. RF |

Since the forward current and reflected current are equal in magnitude and opposite in phase at the ends, they act like transmission line currents and the magnetic fields cancel at the ends. They are in phase at the feedpoint - hence the maximum radiation at that point. -- 73, Cecil, IEEE, OOTC, http://www.w5dxp.com |

Radiation can start from any of them, See what Richard Harrison wrote: "At the open circuited ends of a resonant antenna there is almost double the forward voltage but zero total current due to cancellation of the dorward and reflected currents at the open circuit. At the open circuit in the wire, all the energy in the wave is transferred to the electric field." S* |

You are misinterpreting what Richard Harrison wrote to suit your own, incorrect, made-up version of how antennas work. Please think on this, Szczepan Białek: the likelihood that your personal version of the physics is correct is vanishingly small - when it conflicts with the version everyone else (except perhaps Art Unwin) appears to understand from their education, which is derived from the basis for antennas that have been in use for more than 100 years.

They are in phase at the feedpoint - hence the maximum radiation at that point. It apply to 1/2WL dipole. But what radiate in 0.05WL dipole? There the "maximum radiation " is in the transmission line (1/4WL from the end). The feed point is also in the transmissing line. "R. Clark wrote : "[* What is this proportional and proportionate mean? For a dipole of 0.05 WL to a dipole of 0.5WL, the far field change for that 10:1 variation is negligible. However, for a dipole of 0.5WL to a dipole of 1.25WL, the far field change for that 2.5:1 (a smaller proportion) variation is very noticeable.]" See what Richard Harrison wrote: "At the open circuited ends of a resonant antenna there is almost double the forward voltage but zero total current due to cancellation of the forward and reflected currents at the open circuit. At the open circuit in the wire, all the energy in the wave is transferred to the electric field." What I wrote agrees with what Richard H. wrote and vice versa. Rather no. Richard do not write about a feed point. S* |

The phase, time, distance relationships along the length contribute to a myriad of characteristics, but they are not separable from the complete contribution. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

Using the method of moments, each segment contributes radiation proportional to the net current in the segment. -- 73, Cecil, IEEE, OOTC, http://www.w5dxp.com |
