2. Omnidirectional antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omnidirectional_antenna

   Whip antenna on a walkie-talkie. In radio communication, an omnidirectional antenna is a class of antenna which radiates equal radio power in all directions perpendicular to an axis ( azimuthal directions), with power varying with angle to the axis ( elevation angle ), declining to zero on the axis. [1] [2] When graphed in three dimensions (see ...

3. Fractal antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal_antenna

   A fractal antenna is an antenna that uses a fractal, self-similar design to maximize the effective length, or increase the perimeter (on inside sections or the outer structure), of material that can receive or transmit electromagnetic radiation within a given total surface area or volume. Such fractal antennas are also referred to as multilevel ...

4. Biconical antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biconical_antenna

   Biconical antenna. In radio systems, a biconical antenna is a broad- bandwidth antenna made of two roughly conical conductive objects, nearly touching at their points. [1] Biconical antennas are broadband dipole antennas, typically exhibiting a bandwidth of three octaves or more. A common subtype is the bowtie antenna, essentially a flattened ...

5. Antenna (radio) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_(radio)

   Antenna (radio) In radio engineering, an antenna ( American English) or aerial ( British English) is the interface between radio waves propagating through space and electric currents moving in metal conductors, used with a transmitter or receiver. [1] In transmission, a radio transmitter supplies an electric current to the antenna's terminals ...

6. Whip antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whip_antenna

   Whip antenna on car. A whip antenna is an antenna consisting of a straight flexible wire or rod. The bottom end of the whip is connected to the radio receiver or transmitter. A whip antenna is a form of monopole antenna. The antenna is designed to be flexible so that it does not break easily, and the name is derived from the whip -like motion ...

7. Directional antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directional_antenna

   Directional antenna. A multi-element, log-periodic dipole array. A 70-meter Cassegrain radio antenna at GDSCC, California. Patch antenna gain pattern. A directional antenna or beam antenna is an antenna which radiates or receives greater radio wave power in specific directions. Directional antennas can radiate radio waves in beams, when greater ...
