  2. Antenna array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_array

    An antenna array (or array antenna) is a set of multiple connected antennas which work together as a single antenna, to transmit or receive radio waves. [ 1 ] : p.149 [ 2 ] The individual antennas (called elements ) are usually connected to a single receiver or transmitter by feedlines that feed the power to the elements in a specific phase ...

  3. Cassegrain antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassegrain_antenna

    A beam waveguide antenna is a type of complicated Cassegrain antenna with a long radio wave path to allow the feed electronics to be located at ground level. It is used in very large steerable radio telescopes and satellite ground antennas, where the feed electronics are too complicated and bulky, or requires too much maintenance and alterations, to locate on the dish; for example those using ...

  4. Collinear antenna array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collinear_antenna_array

    Collinear dipole array on repeater for radio station JOHG-FM on Mt. Shibisan, Kagoshima, Japan. 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.

  5. Smart antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_antenna

    Smart antennas (also known as adaptive array antennas, digital antenna arrays, multiple antennas and, recently, MIMO) are antenna arrays with smart signal processing algorithms used to identify spatial signal signatures such as the direction of arrival (DOA) of the signal, and use them to calculate beamforming vectors which are used to track and locate the antenna beam on the mobile/target.

  6. Numerical Electromagnetics Code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_Electromagnetics...

    In antenna terms, each of the conductors making up the antenna is known as an element. [9] To calculate the net result, NEC breaks the antenna's elements into a number of sampled points, called segments. It uses simple calculations based on the diameter of the conductor and the wavelength of the signal to determine the induced voltage and ...

  7. Angle of arrival - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_of_arrival

    Consider, for example, a two element array spaced apart by one-half the wavelength of an incoming RF wave. If a wave is incident upon the array at boresight, it will arrive at each antenna simultaneously. This will yield 0° phase-difference measured between the two antenna elements, equivalent to a 0° AoA.

  8. Antenna boresight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_boresight

    For most antennas the boresight is the axis of symmetry of the antenna. For example, for axial-fed dish antennas, the antenna boresight is the axis of symmetry of the parabolic dish, and the antenna radiation pattern (the main lobe) is symmetrical about the boresight axis. Most antennas boresight axis is fixed by their shape and cannot be changed.

  9. Transmitarray antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmitarray_antenna

    A transmitarray antenna (or just transmitarray or called as layered lens antenna [2]) is a phase-shifting surface (PSS), a structure capable of focusing electromagnetic radiation from a source antenna to produce a high-gain beam. [3] Transmitarrays consist of an array of unit cells placed above a source (feeding) antenna. [4]
