2. Monopole antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopole_antenna

   A typical mast radiator monopole antenna of an AM radio station in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The mast itself is connected to the transmitter and radiates the radio waves. It is mounted on a ceramic insulator to isolate it from the ground. The other terminal of the transmitter is connected to a ground system consisting of cables buried under ...

3. Radio masts and towers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_masts_and_towers

   A mast radiator or mast antenna is a radio tower or mast in which the whole structure is an antenna. Mast antennas are the transmitting antennas typical for long or medium wave broadcasting. Structurally, the only difference is that some mast radiators require the mast base to be insulated from the ground.

4. Antenna types - Wikipedia

   It is usually fed at its center with the feedline counter-sloping perpendicularly, away from the slanting antenna wire, towards a stake in the ground near the base of the mast. [e] The sloper's far end is attached by a cord to a short pole or fastened by an insulated cord to a ground anchor. It is popular because it requires only a single mast ...

5. J-pole antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J-pole_antenna

   The J-pole antenna is an end-fed omnidirectional half-wave antenna that is matched to the feedline by a shorted quarter-wave parallel transmission line stub. [5] [1] [6] For a transmitting antenna to operate efficiently, absorbing all the power provided by its feedline, the antenna must be impedance matched to the line; it must have a resistance equal to the feedline's characteristic impedance.

6. Folded unipole antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folded_unipole_antenna

   The folded unipole antenna is a type of monopole mast radiator antenna used as a transmitting antenna mainly in the medium wave band for AM radio broadcasting stations. It consists of a vertical metal rod or mast mounted over and connected at its base to a grounding system consisting of buried wires.

7. Whip antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whip_antenna

   If it was infinitely thin the antenna would have an infinite input impedance, but the finite width gives typical, practical half wave whips an impedance of 800–1,500 ohms. These are usually fed through an impedance matching transformer or a quarter wave stub matching section (e.g. the J-pole antenna). An advantage is that because it acts as a ...

9. Guyed mast - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guyed_mast

   Guyed masts are frequently used for radio masts and towers. The mast can either support radio antennas (for VHF, UHF and other microwave bands) mounted at its top, or the entire structure itself can function as a mast radiator antenna (for VLF, LF, MF). In the latter case, the mast needs to be insulated from the ground. Guyed radio masts are ...
