2. Monopole antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopole_antenna

   A monopole antenna is a class of radio antenna consisting of a straight rod-shaped conductor, often mounted perpendicularly over some type of conductive surface, called a ground plane. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The driving signal from the transmitter is applied, or for receiving antennas the output signal to the receiver is taken, between the lower end ...

   the upper half of a vertical full-wavelength loop antenna mounted on the ground (not to be confused with the visually similar but electrically different half-square antenna described below, under array antennas, [t] nor to be confused with the halo antenna, described next). The full loop is cut at two opposite points along its perimeter, and ...

4. Whip antenna - Wikipedia

   Whip antenna on portable FM radio receiver 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 ...

5. Loop antenna - Wikipedia

   Car-roof-mounted 6-meter halo antenna for mobile amateur radio (WA8FJW). Notice the triple-loop. Notice the triple-loop. On the VHF bands and above, the physical diameter of a halo is small enough to be effectively used as a mobile antenna.

6. Antenna (radio) - Wikipedia

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

   This is the type of antenna used in most portable AM broadcast receivers (other than car radios): The standard AM antenna is a loop of wire wound around a ferrite rod (a "loopstick antenna"). The loop is resonated by a coupled tuning capacitor, which is configured to match the receiver's tuning, in order to keep the antenna resonant at the ...

7. Power antenna - Wikipedia

   The automatic kind will also lower when the ignition switch is turned off. Unlike most car antennas adjusted directly by hand, power antennas retract completely beneath the surface that they are mounted on. This convenience could be found on most luxury cars by the late-1950s. The automatic power antenna became much more common in the 1970s. [1]
