Time : Three hours Maximum : 100 marks
Answer ALL questions
PART A — (10 × 2 = 20 marks)

2. What is the significance of radiation resistance of an antenna?
3. What are the applications of loop antenna?
4. Define Pattern Multiplication.
5. State Huygens Principle.
6. What are the features of pyramidal horn antenna?

11. (a) Derive the Electric and magnetic field quantities of Hertzian dipole. (16)
Or
(b) Explain the following terms with respect to antenna:
(i) Polarization (4)
(ii) Effective aperture (3)
(iii) Directivity (3)
(iv) Antenna temperature (3)
