4. WokFi - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WokFi

   The WokFi antenna is considered simpler and cheaper than other home-built antenna projects (such as the popular cantenna), but is a very effective method to boost the Wi-Fi connection quality, audit access point coverage, and even quickly establish WLAN viability – perhaps if a more professional setup is eventually intended.

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. Rubber ducky antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_ducky_antenna

   The antenna is made of a narrow helix of wire like a spring, which functions as the needed inductor. The springy wire is flexible, making it less prone to damage than a stiff antenna. The spring antenna is further enclosed in a plastic or rubber-like covering to protect it. The technical name for this type of antenna is a normal-mode helix. [7]

7. Cantenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantenna

   The 5.5 GHz cantenna dimensions are almost perfect in that they make a good fit for the standard TV satellite dish. The resulting setup is a low-cost high-quality high-gain antenna. [6] Such setups are widely used in wireless community networks for long-distance Wi-Fi links. Cantennas may be used with other RF devices such as wireless security ...
