    Directivity = G/η , where η = efficiency

    =
    Rr
    =
    72
    =
    72
    =
    9
    = 0.9
    Rr + Rl72 + 88010

    Now,
    D =
    16
    = 17.78
    0.9

  1. A half wave dipole capable of radiating 1 kW and has 2.15 dB over a isotropic antenna. How much power must be delivered to the isotropic omnidirectional antenna, to match the field strength of directional antenna?

    Given P1 = 1 kW (Power of unidirectional antenna)
    P2 =? (Power delivered)
    Gain in dB = 2.15
    Now,

    2.15 = 10 log10
    P2
    1000

    or
    P2 = 1000 × 10.215
    or
    P2 = 1640. 589
    or
    P2 ≈ 1641 watt

    Correct Option: D

    Given P1 = 1 kW (Power of unidirectional antenna)
