In which direction does a half-wave dipole antenna radiate the strongest signal?
Equally in all directions
Off the ends of the antenna
In the direction of the feed line
Broadside to the antenna✓Bonne réponse
Explication
Current on a half-wave dipole flows along the wire, and radiation is strongest perpendicular to the current and weakest along the wire axis. The pattern is therefore a broadside figure-eight with nulls off the ends, not omnidirectional.
