2. Antenna (radio) - Wikipedia

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

   In transmission, a radio transmitter supplies an electric current to the antenna's terminals, and the antenna radiates the energy from the current as electromagnetic waves (radio waves). In reception , an antenna intercepts some of the power of a radio wave in order to produce an electric current at its terminals, that is applied to a receiver ...

3. How to find the best TV antenna for free HD channels - AOL

   You can stream a lot of TV online, but for things like the Olympics and breaking news, you'll want a local broadcast station to deliver the goods. Buying an antenna isn't like buying a toaster ...

4. Directional antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directional_antenna

   Patch antenna gain pattern. A directional antenna or beam antenna is an antenna which radiates or receives greater radio wave power in specific directions. Directional antennas can radiate radio waves in beams, when greater concentration of radiation in a certain direction is desired, or in receiving antennas receive radio waves from one specific direction only.

5. Front-to-back ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front-to-back_ratio

   In point-to-point microwave antennas, a "high performance" antenna usually has a higher front to back ratio than other antennas. For example, an unshrouded 38 GHz microwave dish may have a front to back ratio of 64 dB, while the same size reflector equipped with a shroud would have a front to back ratio of 70 dB.

6. Omnidirectional antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omnidirectional_antenna

   Omnidirectional antennas are widely used for radio broadcasting antennas, [3] and in mobile devices that use radio such as cell phones, FM radios, walkie-talkies, wireless computer networks, cordless phones, GPS, as well as for base stations that communicate with mobile radios, such as police and taxi dispatchers and aircraft communications.

8. Antenna diversity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_diversity

   Antenna diversity is especially effective at mitigating these multipath situations. This is because multiple antennas offer a receiver several observations of the same signal. Each antenna will experience a different interference environment. Thus, if one antenna is experiencing a deep fade, it is likely that another has a sufficient signal ...

9. Antenna measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_measurement

   An antenna designer must take into account the application for the antenna when determining the gain. High-gain antennas have the advantage of longer range and better signal quality, but must be aimed carefully in a particular direction. Low-gain antennas have shorter range, but the orientation of the antenna is inconsequential.
