Figure 3.2-19 Example of a wire antenna designed using a genetic algorithm. Vector parameters might include, for example, the lengths of each straight segment of the antenna quantized in units of O/16, and the angles between successive elements, similarly quantized.
The radio antenna may be defined as the interface between a circuit in which electrical power is constrained to follow conducting paths, and electromagnetic radiation travelling freely through space. The antenna may convert power in the circuit into radiated energy or vice versa, forming either a transmitting or receiving antenna respectively ...

Fig. 2.1.1 shows a simple wireless communication link comprising a transmitter, wireless channel, and a receiver. The transmitter consists of an RF generator, feed line, and an antenna that converts the guided wave coming from the feed to a radiating waveform in open space.
An intuitive tutorial of antennas and antenna theory. This website is designed to present a comprehensive overview of antennas, from design, to measurement and theory. Unnecessarily complicated math is avoided throughout.
The problems listed below comes from Balanis’ book (3rd ed) and are the most rele-vant for this Antenna Theory course. Some of these problems will be solved on the blackboard during the tutorials and solutions will also be provided to other problems. Answers are given for most of the problems.
Wire Antennas - Introduction. Wire antennas are the simplest, cheapest, and many times most effective antennas for many applications. The easiness of configuration and analysis is why we begin with these types of antennas. Linear Wire Antennas. Infinitesimal Dipole.
