Radiation resistance of a half-wave dipole is ______(a) 36.56Ω(b) 18.28Ω(c) 73.12Ω(d) 40.24ΩThis question was addressed to me by my college director while I was bunking the class.The origin of the question is Basics topic in chapter Antenna Parameters of Antennas

Answer»

Correct OPTION is (c) 73.12Ω

Easy EXPLANATION: Since RADIATION resistance of quarter-wave monopole (l=λ/4) is 36.56Ω, then for a half-wave DIPOLE (l=λ/2) it is given by 36.56×2 = 73.12Ω. Hertzian dipole is an ideal dipole of INFINITESIMAL dipole.
