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. 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 ...

4. Collinear antenna array - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collinear_antenna_array

   In telecommunications, a collinear antenna array (sometimes spelled colinear antenna array) is an array of dipole or quarter-wave antennas mounted in such a manner that the corresponding elements of each antenna are parallel and collinear; that is, they are located along a common axis. Collinear arrays are high gain omnidirectional antennas.

5. Parabolic antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_antenna

   A parabolic antenna is an antenna that uses a parabolic reflector, a curved surface with the cross-sectional shape of a parabola, to direct the radio waves. The most common form is shaped like a dish and is popularly called a dish antenna or parabolic dish. The main advantage of a parabolic antenna is that it has high directivity.

6. 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 ...

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 ...
