2. Radio receiver design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_receiver_design

   A crystal set receiver consisting of an antenna, a variable inductor, a cat's whisker, and a filter capacitor. A crystal receiver is very simple and can be easy to make or even improvise, for example, the foxhole radio. However, the crystal radio needs a strong RF signal and a long antenna to operate.

3. Antenna (radio) - Wikipedia

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

   An antenna lead-in is the transmission line, or feed line, which connects the antenna to a transmitter or receiver. The "antenna feed" may refer to all components connecting the antenna to the transmitter or receiver, such as an impedance matching network in addition to the transmission line. In a so-called "aperture antenna", such as a horn or ...

4. Radio receiver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_receiver

   The antenna may be enclosed inside the receiver's case, as with the ferrite loop antennas of AM radios and the flat inverted F antenna of cell phones; attached to the outside of the receiver, as with whip antennas used on FM radios, or mounted separately and connected to the receiver by a cable, as with rooftop television antennas and satellite ...

5. Loop antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_antenna

   Ferrite loopstick antenna from an AM radio having two windings, one for long wave and one for medium wave (AM broadcast) reception. About 10 cm (4 inches) long. Ferrite antennas are usually enclosed inside the radio receiver. Ferrite loop antennas are made by winding fine wire around a ferrite rod. They are almost universally used in AM ...

6. Radio transmitter design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_transmitter_design

   A radio transmitter or just transmitter is an electronic device which produces radio waves with an antenna. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves with frequencies between about 30 Hz and 300 GHz. The transmitter itself generates a radio frequency alternating current, which is applied to the antenna. When excited by this alternating current, the ...

7. Antenna types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_types

   Used for elevated base station antennas for land mobile radio systems such as police, ambulance, and taxi dispatchers. Mast radiator A radio tower in which the tower structure itself serves as the antenna. Common form of transmitting antenna for AM radio stations and other MF and LF transmitters.
