Numerical calculations of the information capacity of a transmitting antenna

Abstract

We discuss the information capacity of the transmitting antenna through numerical examples. Antennas with different radiation proportions are considered. It is shown that given an antenna geometry and characteristics, the antenna information capacity can be measured and is limited by an upper bound. We also show that the capacity of a directional antenna is greater than that of an omnidirectional antenna for a given size.
