ISRO Electronics & Communication (ECE) 2009 - Question 30

All ISRO Electronics & Communication (ECE) papers | ISRO Electronics & Communication (ECE) 2009

Topic: Electronics Engineering

The beamwidth of a reflector antenna of diameter $=70$ cm at 30 GHz is

  • A. 3.7 degree
  • B. 0.5 degree
  • C. 1.1 degree
  • D. 1 degree

Answer: D. 1 degree

Explanation: Given, $d=70~cm$ $f=30~GHz$
$\lambda=\frac{3\times10^{8}}{30\times10^{9}}\times100~cm=1~cm.$
Beamwidth (0) $=\frac{K\lambda}{d}=\frac{70\times1}{70}=1$ ($\cdot\cdot K=70$)
