‣ If we now bend the open ends of the transmission line in opposite
directions, the currents there will now generate electric fields that are in
phase and will reinforce each other and will therefore radiate and
propagate at a distance.

What is An “ANTENNA”? 57
To create charge
acceleration (or deceleration)
the wire must be curved, bent,
discontinuous, or terminated.
Periodic charge acceleration
(or deceleration) or time-
varying current is also created
when charge is oscillating in a
time-harmonic motion

History of Antenna 87
Hertz's first radio transmitter: a dipole resonator consisting of a pair of One of Hertz's radio wave
one meter copper wires ending in 30 cm zinc spheres. When receivers: a loop antenna with
an induction coil applied a high voltage between the two sides, sparks an adjustable micrometer
across the center spark gap created standing waves of radio frequency spark gap
current in the wires, which radiated radio waves. The frequency of the
waves was roughly 100 MHz, about that used in modern television
transmitters.

His radio apparatus is widely considered to be the reason that over 700
people survived the Titanic disaster in 1912— instead of dying as they likely
would have if ships at sea were still using carrier pigeons to communicate
over great distances.

Types of Radiation Pattern 112
It is that region of the field of an antenna between the reactive near field
region and far field region wherein radiation fields predominates and
wherein the angular field distribution is dependent upon the distance from
the antenna.
If the antenna has a maximum dimension that is not large compared to
the wavelength, this region may not exist.
For an antenna focused at infinity, the radiating near-field region is
sometimes referred to as the Fresnel region.
The outer boundary is the distance R < 2D2/λ where D is the largest
dimension of the antenna.
In this region the field pattern is, in general, a function of the radial distance
and the radial field component may be appreciable
