Antenna diameter (d) is inversely proportional to the operating frequency (f).

So d = k*(1/f).

Note :- Here k is constant.

For up link f = 4GHz for down link f = 6GHz.

d = k*1/4 d = k*1/6.

d/5 = k*1/(4*5).

d/5 = k*1/(6*5).

d/5 = k/20 ---(1)

d/5 = k/30----(2).

So the resultant size of antenna from equation (1) and (2):

Size = d/5 = 20/5 = 4m.

Size = 4m.

Here frequency is multiplied by 5 means the wavelength is divided by 5.

Now length of antenna is directly proportional to the half of the wavelength. So the ultimate length of antenna is divided by 5.

How put 5?

We need height of 20/30 frequency. So do 4*5/6*5 & dived by 5 to 20 meter height?

So answer is 4?

20m antenna-----4/6GHZ-----multiply by 5.

?---------------20/30GHZ.

4*5/6*5-----20/5=4m.

Antenna diameter is inversely proportional to frequency. So f*5 = d/5 = 4m.

Lambda = c/f.
If f' = 5f.
Then lambda' = lemda/5 = height of antenna = 4m.
