RADI ATI ON PATTERN
The energy radiated from an antenna is in a form
of electromagnetic fields.
A radiation pattern is a way of plotting the
radiated energy from an antenna.
The shape of this pattern depends on the type of
antenna used.
Radiation Pattern of an antenna is very
important in describing the antenna performance
because it depicts the fields strength, directivity,
gain, efficiency, polarization, and the power
density of radiated power from antenna.
