How to Evaluate Antenna Current?

Antenna Current evaluator uses Antenna Current = (Strength of Ground Wave Propagation*Wavelength*Transmitter Receiver Distance)/(120*pi*Height of Transmitter*Height of Receiver) to evaluate the Antenna Current, The Antenna Current formula is defined as the current in each part of the antenna that flows in the same direction. Such current is called antenna mode current. Antenna Current is denoted by Ia symbol.

How to evaluate Antenna Current using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Antenna Current, enter Strength of Ground Wave Propagation (Egnd), Wavelength (λ), Transmitter Receiver Distance (D), Height of Transmitter (ht) & Height of Receiver (hr) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Antenna Current

What is the formula to find Antenna Current?
The formula of Antenna Current is expressed as Antenna Current = (Strength of Ground Wave Propagation*Wavelength*Transmitter Receiver Distance)/(120*pi*Height of Transmitter*Height of Receiver). Here is an example- 2246.893 = (400*90*1200)/(120*pi*10.2*5).
How to calculate Antenna Current?
With Strength of Ground Wave Propagation (Egnd), Wavelength (λ), Transmitter Receiver Distance (D), Height of Transmitter (ht) & Height of Receiver (hr) we can find Antenna Current using the formula - Antenna Current = (Strength of Ground Wave Propagation*Wavelength*Transmitter Receiver Distance)/(120*pi*Height of Transmitter*Height of Receiver). This formula also uses Archimedes' constant .
Can the Antenna Current be negative?
No, the Antenna Current, measured in Electric Current cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Antenna Current?
Antenna Current is usually measured using the Ampere[A] for Electric Current. Milliampere[A], Microampere[A], Centiampere[A] are the few other units in which Antenna Current can be measured.
