In a parasitic array the elements are shorted if they are connected to a conducting beam.(a) True(b) FalseThis question was addressed to me during an interview.I want to ask this question from Types of Antenna topic in division Antennas and Wave Propagation of Avionics

Answer»

Right choice is (b) False

The explanation: The boom does not have to be an INSULATOR. Because there is a VOLTAGE null at the center of a one-half wavelength conductor at the RESONANT frequency, there is no potential difference between the elements and so they can all be connected to a conducting boom with no undesirable effect. In other words, the elements are not “shorted TOGETHER.”
