Panel antennas are common at Ultra high frequencies or UHF, where they are often used for cellular/mobile base stations or wireless networking due to their size and directional properties. At very high frequencies, such an antenna would be impractically large for most receiving applications unless implemented as no more than a two-bay design.

English: The image gives six circuit diagrams (schematics) for balanced line antenna tuners of the tuned-transformer type, discussed in the Wikipedia article "Antenna Tuner" or "ATU". It is an edited version of the original by JNRSTANLEY uploaded 2014-10-15.
The second antenna is a reference antenna, which points rigidly at the first antenna. Each antenna is alternately connected to a transmitter having a particular source impedance, and a receiver having the same input impedance (the impedance may differ between the two antennas).
In a radio antennas, the main lobe or main beam is the region of the radiation pattern containing the highest power or exhibiting the greatest field strength.. The radiation pattern of most antennas shows a pattern of "lobes" at various directions, where the radiated signal strength reaches a local maximum, separated by "nulls", at which the radiation falls to zero.
The most common form of log-periodic antenna is the log-periodic dipole array or LPDA, The LPDA consists of a number of half-wave dipole driven elements of gradually increasing length, each consisting of a pair of metal rods. The dipoles are mounted close together in a line, connected in parallel to the feedline with alternating phase.

Diagram of a beam waveguide antenna from NASA, showing the signal path (red). A beam waveguide antenna is a particular type of antenna dish, at which waveguides are used to transmit the radio beam between the large steerable dish and the equipment for reception or transmission, like e.g. RF power amplifiers.
