This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2023 Electronic Science Question Paper (13-Dec-2023) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III

To solve the question, we need to match the types of aperture antennas with their respective beam width at the half-power points.

  1. Understanding the Choices:
    • Uniformly illuminated linear array: The beam width is inversely proportional to the physical length \(L_\lambda\) of the array. For uniformly illuminated arrays, this is typically represented as \(\frac{51}{L_\lambda}\).
    • Uniformly illuminated circular aperture: For a circular aperture, the beam width is commonly represented as inversely proportional to the aperture diameter \(D_\lambda\), given by \(\frac{58}{D_\lambda}\).
    • Optimum E-plane rectangular horn: The beam width for horns, particularly for the E-plane, is given by an expression with \(a_{E\lambda}\), such as \(\frac{56}{a_{E\lambda}}\).
    • Optimum H-plane rectangular horn: Similarly, for the H-plane, the expression involves \(a_{E\lambda}\) and is typically \(\frac{67}{a_{E\lambda}}\).
  2. Mapping the Options:
    • A - IV: Uniformly illuminated linear array corresponds to \(\frac{51}{L_\lambda}\).
    • B - I: Uniformly illuminated circular aperture corresponds to \(\frac{58}{D_\lambda}\).
    • C - II: Optimum E-plane rectangular horn corresponds to \(\frac{56}{a_{E\lambda}}\).
    • D - III: Optimum H-plane rectangular horn corresponds to \(\frac{67}{a_{E\lambda}}\).

The correct match based on the above analysis is:

  • A - IV
  • B - I
  • C - II
  • D - III

This corresponds to the given option: A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III.

  7. Antennas are used for receiving and transmitting the electromagnetic signals. Their size depends upon the operating frequency / wavelength. Higher is the frequency, lower is the size of antenna. They work on Maxwell equations for field theory. They are of various types for different applications like TV transmission, AM transmission, FM transmission and satellite transmission. The waves travel in free space.

  8. An antenna is a key component of a wireless link which efficiently couples electromagnetic energy from the transmitter to free space and from free space to the receiver. An antenna is generally a bidirectional device, i.e, the power through the antenna can flow in both the directions, hence it works as a transmitting as well as a receiving antenna. An antenna acts as an interface between the radiated electromagnetic waves and the guided waves. It can be thought of as a mode transformer which transforms a guided wave field distribution into a radiated-wave field distribution.

    Antennas have become increasingly importance to the society and at present, they are indispensable. They are being used every places. They are available in vast varieties. They are operating at various frequencies which are depending on different application. They operate on the principle of Maxwell's equation. They have different types of radiation patterns. There are several atmospheric losses in the way of propagation of waves. Due to which signal fades down, when it travels from transmitter to receiver antennas.
