  2. Ampère's circuital law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampère's_circuital_law

    In classical electromagnetism, Ampère's circuital law (not to be confused with Ampère's force law) [1] relates the circulation of a magnetic field around a closed loop to the electric current passing through the loop. James Clerk Maxwell derived it using hydrodynamics in his 1861 published paper "On Physical Lines of Force". [2]

  3. Loop antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_antenna

    A quad antenna is a self-resonant loop in a square shape; this one also includes a parasitic element.. Loop antennas may be in the shape of a circle, a square, or any other closed geometric shape that allows the total perimeter to be slightly more than one wavelength.

  4. Antenna factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_factor

    G: the antenna gain; is the magnetic constant; is the electric constant; For antennas which are not defined by a physical area, such as monopoles and dipoles consisting of thin rod conductors, the effective length (units: meter) is used to measure the ratio between voltage and electric field.

  5. Magnetic circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_circuit

    Magnetic field (green) induced by a current-carrying wire winding (red) in a magnetic circuit consisting of an iron core C forming a closed loop with two air gaps G in it. In an analogy to an electric circuit, the winding acts analogously to an electric battery, providing the magnetizing field , the core pieces act like wires, and the gaps G act like resistors.

  6. Antenna equivalent radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_equivalent_radius

    The equivalent radius allows the use of analytical formulas or computational or experimental data derived for antennas constructed from small conductors with uniform, circular cross-sections to be applied in the analysis of antennas constructed from small conductors with uniform, non-circular cross-sections.

  7. Magnetic vector potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_vector_potential

    Thus, a depiction of the field around a loop of flux (as would be produced in a toroidal inductor) is qualitatively the same as the field around a loop of current. The figure to the right is an artist's depiction of the field. The thicker lines indicate paths of higher average intensity (shorter paths have higher intensity so that the path ...

  8. Ampère's force law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampère's_force_law

    In magnetostatics, the force of attraction or repulsion between two current-carrying wires (see first figure below) is often called Ampère's force law. The physical origin of this force is that each wire generates a magnetic field , following the Biot–Savart law , and the other wire experiences a magnetic force as a consequence, following ...

  9. Near and far field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near_and_far_field

    For such an antenna, the near field is the region within a radius r ≪ λ, while the far-field is the region for which r ≫ 2 λ. The transition zone is the region between r = λ and r = 2 λ . The length of the antenna, D, is not important, and the approximation is the same for all shorter antennas (sometimes idealized as so-called point ...
