                                                                  Parabolic Antennas

? Near-Field or Fresnel Region:
    The radiation is substantially confined within a cylindrical pattern having the same
    diameter as the antenna. This region may be considered to extend out from the antenna
    to a distance of Rnf as defined on the following slide.*

? Transition Region:
    Since the distance to the far-field region is two to three times the length of the near-
    field region, there is a transition region between the two.* Within the transition region
    the power density decreases inversely with distance.

? Far-Field or Fraunhofer Region:
    At a substantial distance from an antenna, the power density begins to decrease in
    proportion to the inverse square of the distance from the antenna. This occurs at a
    distance from a parabolic antenna where the difference in path length between a ray on
    the axis of the beam, and a ray from the edge of the antenna to a given point on the
    beam axis, is less than 1/16 of a wavelength. This region begins at a distance
    designated as Rff as defined on the following slide.

                                   Power Density for Parabolic Antennas

? Power density calculations for the Near-Field
 Region of a Parabolic Antenna.
  – The magnitude of the on-axis power density varies with location
    within the near-field. However, the maximum value of the near-
    field power density can be calculated by the following equation:

    Wnf   ? 4? P       ? 16 ? P
                   A              ? D2
    Where: Wnf ? Maximum power density in the Near - Field Region in mW / cm 2
            ? ? Apeture efficiency, typically 50 - 60% for commercially available antennas
            P ? Average transmitter power in mW
            D ? Antenna diameter in cm
            A ? Area of antenna aperture (? D 4 ) in cm2

                     Power Density for Parabolic Antennas (Cont.)

? Power density calculations for the Transition
 Region of a Parabolic Antenna.
  – Within the transition region, the magnitude of the on-axis power
    density decreases inversely with distance from the antenna.
    Therefore the power density within this region can be calculated
    the following equation:

  W   t
          ? W nf R nf R


  W h e r e : W t ? Power density in the transition region in mW / cm 2
             W nf ? M a x i m u m power density in the Near - F ield Region in mW / cm

              R   ? D istance to point of interest in feet


                       Power Density for Parabolic Antennas (Cont.)

? Power density calculations for the Far-Field
 Region of a Parabolic Antenna.
  – The power density in the far-field region decreases inversely as
    the square of the distance from the antenna surface. Within this
    region the power density can be estimated by the following
    equation:
              ?   PG
     W   ff            4? R 2
     Where: W ff ? Maximum power density on axis in the Far - Field Region in mW / cm 2
             P ? Average power fed to the antenna in mW
                  G ? Gain of antenna in the direction of interest relative to an isotropic radiator
                  R ? Distance to the point of interest in cm

                                              Power Density Calculation

Exemple:
– Antenna Diameter = 8 ft
– Aperture efficiency = 55%
– Operating frequency = 5.8 GHz
– MW transmitter output = +30 dBm (1Watt)
– Transmission line loss = 0.2 dB (worst case)
Power @ antenna input port = 30 dBm - 0.2 dB = 29.8 dBm
Pmw = 10 Pdbm/10 = 10 2.98 = 954.99 mW
D = 8 ft x m/3.2808 x 100cm/m = 243.84 cm
A =?? ?D2/4 = ? x (243.84)2/4 = 46699.297 cm2
W = Power density in Near - Field Region of example system.
W = 4 ? P/ A = 4 x .55 x 954.99 mW / 46699.297 cm2 = 0.04498 mW/cm2 ?
• Bulletin-65 Maximum allowable power density for 11.2 GHz is 1.0 mW/cm2 ,
  or 22.2 times greater than calculated maximum power density.
