skrf.media.freespace.Freespace.gamma

property Freespace.gamma: Number | Sequence[Number] | ndarray

Propagation Constant, \(\gamma\).

Defined as,

\[\gamma = \sqrt{ Z^{'} Y^{'}}\]

Returns:

gamma – Propagation Constant,

Return type:

np.ndarray

Note

The components of propagation constant are interpreted as follows:

• positive real(gamma) = attenuation

• positive imag(gamma) = forward propagation
