Siemens (unit) plural. For a conducting element, electrical resistance "R" and electrical conductance "G" are defined as where "I" is the electric current through the object and "V" is the voltage (electrical potential difference) across the object. The unit siemens for the conductance "G" is defined by where Ω is the ohm, A is the ampere, and V is the volt. For a device with a conductance of one siemens, the electric current through the device will increase by one ampere for every increase of one volt of electric potential difference across the device. The conductance of a resistor with a resistance
Radiation resistance to electromagnetic radiation. Radiation resistance is caused by the radiation reaction of the conduction electrons in the antenna. When electrons are accelerated, as occurs when an AC electrical field is impressed on an antenna, they will radiate electromagnetic waves. These waves carry energy that is taken from the electrons. The loss of energy of the electrons appears as an effective resistance to the movement of the electrons, analogous to the ohmic resistance caused by scattering of the electrons in the crystal lattice of the metallic conductor. Power is calculated as where formula_2 is the electric current flowing into the feeds
