Explain how antenna acts as transducer.Also define loop antennas.
An antenna is a transducer that converts radio frequency electric current into Electromagnetic wave that are then radiated into free space.An antenna is a fundamental component of the communication system.Basically antennas are nothing but link between transmitter and free space or free space to receiver.
The characteristics of the communication system are dependent on the characteristics of the antenna used in the system.
Loop antennas: These are the radiating coils having any convenient cross section area and one or more turns carrying radio frequency current.It may assume of any shape e.g rectangular,square,triangular hexagonal and circular.If a loop consists of one or more turns then it is called frame
