What does “front-to-back ratio” mean in reference to a Yagi antenna?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: C. The power radiated in the major lobe compared to that in the opposite direction
Front-to-back ratio compares the power radiated in the main lobe to the power radiated in the opposite direction. A high ratio means little signal goes out the back.
Tip: Front-to-back: forward power vs. backward power.
