What are the basic antenna parameters and what do they represent?

The basic antenna parameters include patterns, beam area, radiation intensity, beam efficiency, directivity-gain-resolution, antenna apertures, and effective height. They represent different aspects of the antenna's performance and radiation properties.

What is the difference between near field and far field in antenna radiation?

The fields from an oscillating dipole antenna are divided into near field and far field. The near field is close to the antenna and has complex and varying field components, while the far field is further away and has simpler and more predictable field components. The far field is further divided into the radiation zone and Fraunhofer zone.

What are some of the parameters discussed for thin linear center-fed antennas of different lengths?

For thin linear center-fed antennas of different lengths, current distributions, field components, radiated power, radiation resistance, beam width, directivity, effective area and effective height, natural current distributions, far fields, and patterns are discussed. These parameters help to understand and analyze the performance of different types of antennas.
