Question

An FM radio station tries to broadcast from a single vertical antenna. Why might it be better to broadcast from a more complicated antenna with both horizontal and vertical components?

Question 31 options:

No reason to make the change

The signal from the new antenna will travel faster

The signal from the new antenna will have a larger bandwidth

The signal from the new antenna will make the alignment of the receiving antenna, for example on a portable radio set, less critical.

With the new arrangement electrical power in the antenna can be turned into electromagnetic radiation more efficiently, reducing heating in the antenna.

E)

Explanation / Answer

If we transmitting in both horizontal and vertical coponents then It will become easy to to recieve signal by alignment of recieving antenna as signal will reach in both the directions. so by this arrangement The signal from the new antenna will make the alignment of the receiving antenna, for example on a portable radio set, less critical.
