Hi everyone,
I'm new to RF design and aware that this may be a trivial and/or silly question for the RF experts on here.
I'm wondering which parameters, for planar antennas (such as patch antennas), are affecting the output voltage of the antenna (Vpp). Is that the frequency of the signal(s), the power of the received signal(s), a combination thereof, or something completely different? Second part of the question: for a certain antenna design, is it possible to deduce the received power strength and/or frequency from the output voltage, possibly with calibration?
If I wanted to measure the received power level in a very narrow band of frequencies, what would be the best approach to do this?
If anyone could direct me to relevant literature on this topic, I would be very grateful.
