The basic of antenna Gain, efficiency <strong>and</strong> directivity<br />

Spherical radiation<br />

Balloon becomes<br />

spherical<br />

0dBi<br />

Blow air 1 into antenna<br />

The spherical shape is radiation pattern<br />

What’s that<br />

making gain<br />

higher?<br />

If try to break balloon?<br />

The volume of blown air is constant<br />

Integration value of directional pattern =1<br />

<strong>Antenna</strong> efficiency 100%<br />

Unit of gain → dBi (i→isotropic)<br />

-α(dB)<br />

It means that isotropic antenna is st<strong>and</strong>ard antenna for gain<br />

measurement.<br />

This is the ideal antenna that radiates equally in all directions.<br />
