pycraf.antenna.fl_hpbw_from_size(diameter, wavelength)[source]#

Estimate HPBW from antenna diameter after ITU-R Rec F.699.

Parameters:

diameterQuantity: Antenna diameter [m]
wavelengthQuantity: Observing wavelength [m]

Returns:

hpbwQuantity: Antenna HPBW (3-dB point) [deg]

Notes

See ITU-R Rec F.699 for further explanation and applicability of this model.
