What does an efficiency budget for an aperture antenna list?

  • A.Each loss factor separately so the largest can be identified
  • B.The total power consumed by the antenna system during normal operation
  • C.The cost of each component measured against its contribution to the gain
  • D.The bandwidth available for each of the services sharing the same aperture

Answer: A

An efficiency budget sets out taper, spillover, blockage, phase error, surface tolerance and cross polar loss as separate multiplying factors whose product is the aperture efficiency. Listing them separately shows at once where an improvement would be worth making. It is not a power, cost or bandwidth accounting, though those exist too. Breaking a single measured shortfall into its named contributions is the standard engineering approach to any composite quantity.
