What is included in the total resistance of an antenna system?
Radiation resistance plus ohmic resistance
The total resistance (Rt) at the feedpoint of an antenna system includes the radiation resistance (Rr), which accounts for radiated power, and the ohmic (loss) resistance (Rloss), which accounts for power dissipated as heat in the antenna conductors, connections, and nearby lossy materials.
