How is a reflector element in a Yagi array distinguished from a director?

  • A.The reflector is slightly shorter than resonance
  • B.The reflector is connected to the feed line
  • C.The reflector is mounted at right angles to the others
  • D.The reflector is slightly longer than resonance

Answer: D

A parasite longer than resonance is inductive, so its re-radiated field lags and the combination reinforces on the far side, making it a reflector; a shorter, capacitive parasite acts as a director. One reflector is usually enough because the field behind the driven element is already weak, while several directors continue to add gain. Nothing is connected to the feed but the driven element, and all elements lie parallel.
