I might say that success is won by three things: first，effort ；second，more efforts；third still more efforts. 我认为成功的三要素是：努力、努力、再努力。 Harding;Unit 11 Antennas ;Student: Of course. Fig.11-1 Seattleite Antennas Engineer: The length of an element or elements of a given antenna is cut to support radiation over a rather narrow range of frequencies. The center frequency of this range is the antenna’s resonant frequency. Student: Oh. So the longer the antenna, the lower its resonant frequency. Engineer: That’s right. A sinusoidal current fed to an antenna is composed of charged particles which undergo changes in velocity proportional to the period of the current. An antenna cut to the proper wavelength will thus radiate energy at the frequency of the feed current .;Student: That makes sense. Now what about all the different shapes? Engineer: They are used to achieve a desired radiation pattern. Student: Are you saying that antennas can be made to radiate not only at different frequencies but also in different directions? Engineer: That’s right. Omnidirectional antennas exist, but antennas with directivity, such as the horn antenna, are far more common. Student: How is the radiated power measured? Engineer: With a device we call a field-strength meter. ;Student: Sometimes I see groups of antennas which apparently act as one antenna. For instance, radio telescopes appear to be a series of dish antennas. Are they all acting together as a single antenna? Engineer: Yes. Any group of antennas acting as a single antenna is called an array, and each individual antenna is known as an element in the array. Radio telescopes are arrays of receiving antennas. Student: Do you mean to say that some antennas are used solely for transmitting and some solely for receiving? Engineer: Yes. In fact, some transmitting antennas are arrays composed of omnidirectional antennas .;Notes;Terminology Practice ;dir
