0 0 votes For an infinitesimally small dipole in free space, the electric field $E_{\theta }$ in the far field is proportional to $e^{-jkr/r}\sin\theta$, where $k=2\pi /\lambda$. A vertical infinitesimally small electric dipole $\left (\delta l \ll \lambda \right )$ is placed at a distance $h\left ( h> 0 \right )$ above an infinite ideal conducting plane, as shown in the figure. The minimum value of $h$, for which one of the maxima in the far field radiation pattern occurs at $\theta =60^{\circ}$, is $\lambda$ $0.5\lambda$ $0.25\lambda$ $0.75\lambda$ Electromagnetics gate2020-ec electromagnetics radiation-pattern + – go_editor 712 views answer comment Share Follow Add Sync Questions Print 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
