SUMMARY

The bending of antennas is crucial for effective energy radiation, as parallel wires lead to rapid field decay and cancellation of radiation effects due to opposing current flows. In contrast, the V antenna design utilizes nearly-parallel wires at a small angle, enhancing radiation efficiency. This design mitigates the issues associated with parallel wire configurations, making it a preferred choice for effective signal transmission.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of antenna theory and radiation patterns
  • Familiarity with V antenna design principles
  • Knowledge of electromagnetic field behavior
  • Basic concepts of current flow in conductive materials
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the design and benefits of V antennas
  • Explore electromagnetic field theory related to antenna performance
  • Learn about the impact of wire configuration on radiation efficiency
  • Investigate practical applications of bent antennas in communication systems
USEFUL FOR

Radio frequency engineers, antenna designers, and anyone interested in optimizing antenna performance for effective signal transmission.

why does the bending of antenna is important?why we can't just use two parallel wire to radiate energy?
thanks.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
The fields decay too quickly with distance if the wires are parallel.
 
In parallel wires, the curernt would flow in opposite directions, cancelling their radiation effect.

The V antenna has nearly-parallel wires, but they are not parallel, and the small angle makes the radiation.
