Isotropic radiator
An isotropic radiator is a theoretical point source of waves which exhibits the same magnitude or properties when measured in all directions. It has no preferred direction of radiation. It radiates uniformly in all directions over a sphere centred on the source. It is a reference radiator with which other sources are compared. Isotropic radiators obey Lambert's law.
