Derivation of transmission formula editar

Having defined the effective area of an antenna, it is a simple matter to derive (1). As shown in Fig. 1, consider a radio circuit made up of an isotropic transmitting

antenna and a receiving antenna with effective area Ar. The power flow per unit area at the distance d from the transmitter is

Assuming a plane wave front at the distance d, definition (2) for the effective area and formula (8) give

Replacing the isotropic transmitting antenna in the illustration with a transmitting antenna with effective area At will increase the received power by the ratio , and we obtain

Introducing the effective area (6) for the isotropic antenna, we have (1).

Limitations of transmission formula editar

In deriving (1), a plane wave front was assumed at the distance d. Formula (1), therefore, should not be used when d is small. W. D. Lewis, of these Laboratories, has made a theoretical study of transmission between large antennas of equal areas with plane phase fronts at their apertures and he finds that (1) is correct to within a few per cent when

where a is the largest linear dimension of either of the antennas.
Formula (1) applies to free space only, a condition which designers of microwave circuits seek to approximate. Application of the formula to other conditions may require corrections for the effect of the “ground,” and for absorption in the transmission medium, which are beyond the scope of this note.
he advantage of (1) over other formulations is that, fortunately, it has no numerical coefficients. It is so simple that it may be memorized easily. Almost 7 years of intensive use has proved its utility in transmission calculations involving wavelengths up to several meters, and it may become useful also at longer wavelengths. It is suggested that radio engineers hereafter give the radiation from a transmitting antenna in terms of the power flow per unit area which is equal to , instead of giving the field strength in volts per meter. It is also suggested that an antenna be characterized by its effective area, instead of by its power gain or radiation resistance. The ratio of the effective area to the actual area of the aperture of an antenna is also of importance in antenna design, since it gives an indication of how efficiently the antenna is utilizing the physical space it occupies. *The directional pattern, which has not been discussed in this note,is, of course, always an important characteristic of an antenna.
