The array factor of 4- isotropic elements of broadside array separated by a λ/4 is given by ____________(a) sinc(cosθ)(b) cos(sinθ)(c) sin(sinθ)(d) sin(cosθ)I had been asked this question by my school principal while I was bunking the class.This question is from Radiation Pattern for 4-Isotropic Elements topic in section Antenna Array of Antennas |

Answer» CORRECT option is (a) SINC(cosθ) The explanation: Normalized array factor is given by \(AF=\FRAC{SIN(Nᴪ/2)}{N \frac{ᴪ}{2}}\) And ᴪ=kdcosθ+β Since its given broad side array β=0, ᴪ=kdcosθ+β=kdcosθ \(\frac{Nᴪ}{2}=2kdcosθ=2(\frac{2π}{λ})(\frac{λ}{4})cosθ=πcosθ \) \(AF=\frac{sin(Nᴪ/2)}{N \frac{ᴪ}{2}}=\frac{sin(πcosθ)}{πcosθ}=sinc(cosθ).\) |
