For efficient transmission, transmitting antenna has length comparable to

A

`lambda//2 `

B

`lambda // 3 `

C

`lambda // 4 `

D

` lambda // 5 `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

For efficient radiation and reception , the height of transmitting and receiving antennas should be comparable to a quarter of wavelength of the frequency used. So , for efficient transmission of signals of wavelength ` lambda ` , the minimum length of antenna should be ` lambda//4 `
