fresnel zone - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Of all the formulas I have seen for calculating the fresnel zone of a microwave link, I have not seen an explicit account for antenna types. It would seem that if you have a highly directional antenna with a narrow beamwidth, the fresnel zone would be much different than say a typical sector antenna with.
