HERTZANTENNA
HISTORY
Professor Heinrich Hertz made the first radio
transmission in 1886 in his
laboratory of
Karlsrhule University.
first antenna, he
invented has the shape shown

CONSTRUCTION
dipole can be any length,
but it most commonly is
just under 1/2 wavelength
long
dipole has an input
impedance that is purely
resistive and lies between
30 and 80 ohm

INTRODUCTION
dipole antenna, with ½ wavelength
very small, compared to its wavelength that is
about one-hundredths of the wavelength at its
operating frequency
radiation pattern of hertz antenna is not truly
isotropic

hole
Gain is stronger in the direction of maximum
radiation
radiation from an isotropic radiator is in the
same direction

GAINDIRECTIVITY & POLARIZATION:
Gain of the Hertz Antenna is 2.1dBs
Directivity a Gain
(i.e. the directivity increases as the gain increases)
can also be vertically polarized.
antenna is placed perpendicular, or vertically with
respect to the Earth’s surface

vertical wire with a length of 1/4 of the working
wavelength
length of the wire in meters is calculated as
L = ( 71,25 / Frequency MHz)

COMPARISONBETWEEN HERZ AND
MARCONI
Electrically,
Marconi antenna operates as a Hertz
antenna.
Physically
It is only a one-quarter wavelength (1/4 l)
long.
