Relación, expresada generalmente en decibelios, entre la intensidad de radiación producida por una antena en una dirección dada y la intensidad de radiación que se obtendría si la totalidad de la potencia suministrada a la antena fuera radiada del mismo modo en todas las direcciones del espacio. 1, record 1, Spanish, - ganancia%20is%C3%B3tropa
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Si no hay dirección específica, la dirección de la máxima intensidad de radiación está implícita; Si se trata de una antena sin pérdidas, su ganancia absoluta es igual a su directividad en las misma dirección. 1, record 1, Spanish, - ganancia%20is%C3%B3tropa
