Hi everybody! I want to mount a dipole FM antenna on top of a three
story building. My transmitter will be located in a room in the bottom floor. Has anyone have experience in this? I know that I will get some signal attenuation with that long of a coaxial cable (100 meters). If my cable has a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms (matching the output impedance of the transmitter), will it adversely affect my transmission? I was reading my electromagnetics book and it mentions that depending on transmission line length the cable might look like an inductor or capacitor. What other factors should I take into account my calculations for the effect of the cable length on the system? My current setup includes a 100w low power fm transmitter being fed by a computer running some school audio programs. Thnx! |
