Centimeter wave kit

Set allowing for experiments on the propagation of electromagnetic waves with centimeter-scale wavelengths. A conical antenna transmitter emits a narrow beam of linearly polarized electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of approx. 3 cm. To change the polarization direction, rotate the conical antenna along the axis of propagation. The waves are detected by a conical antenna receiver or a microwave probe. The electromagnetic field intensity is converted into a proportional ouExperimentut voltage that can be measured with a voltmeter. Additionally, an acoustic signal can be activated whose volume is proportional to the intensity. Experiment themes: Straight-line propagation of microwaves ● Reflection, absorption, and transmission ● Microwave shielding ● Polarization experiments ● Refraction experiments ● Diffraction and interference experiments ● Information transmission
