The discussion revolves around the concept of a four antenna array arranged in a square formation, with a focus on understanding the interaction of electromagnetic waves emitted from these antennas. The original poster seeks a diagram to visualize this arrangement and its implications for radiation patterns.
The discussion is ongoing, with participants exploring different interpretations of the original question. Some guidance has been provided regarding the potential direction of strongest radiation based on antenna placement, but no consensus has been reached on the specifics of the diagram or the types of antennas.
There is a noted lack of detailed information in the original homework problem regarding the types of antennas and their characteristics, which may affect the discussion. The original poster mentions that the relevant material is found in a chapter on physical optics, which may not cover antennas in depth.

sorry I kind of made up the term "electromagnetic diagram", I just wanted to see how the electromagnetic waves interact with each other(being from the 4 different antennas).
