If the ohmic resistance of a half-wave dipole is 2 ohms, and the radiation resistance is 72 ohms, what is the antenna efficiency?

  1. A97.3%
  2. B74%
  3. C72%
  4. D100%

Correct answer: A — 97.3%. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

Antenna efficiency measures how much power turns into radio waves instead of heat. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
