In the case of lines, the cone extends infinitely far in both directions from the apex, in which case it is sometimes called a double cone. Either half of a double cone on one side of the apex is called a nappe. The axis of a cone is the straight line passing through the apex about which the base (and the whole cone) has a circular symmetry.
The extra bandwidth comes from the controlled taper and large termination radius of the cone. The cone shape and flat disk disperse the local electric field. This reduces stored energy in the electric field, reducing antenna Q while also reducing losses. The elevation pattern might be distorted with grating lobes.

The resulting pattern, at any one instant in time, covers the midline of the antenna for about 0.5 degrees, and 1.5 degrees to the side. By spinning the feed horn with a motor, the pattern becomes a cone centered on the midline, extending 3 degrees across.
A visual representation of a vertical antenna's blind cone. In telecommunications, antenna blind cone (sometimes called a cone of silence or antenna blind spot) is the volume of space, usually approximately conical with its vertex at the antenna, that cannot be scanned by an antenna because of limitations of the antenna radiation pattern and mount.
An elliptic cone, a special case of a conical surface In geometry , a conical surface is a three-dimensional surface formed from the union of lines that pass through a fixed point and a space curve .
Cones and pyramids can be viewed as degenerate cases of frusta, where one of the cutting planes passes through the apex (so that the corresponding base reduces to a point). The pyramidal frusta are a subclass of prismatoids. Two frusta with two congruent bases joined at these congruent bases make a bifrustum.
Conical spiral with an archimedean spiral as floor projection Floor projection: Fermat's spiral Floor projection: logarithmic spiral Floor projection: hyperbolic spiral. In mathematics, a conical spiral, also known as a conical helix, [1] is a space curve on a right circular cone, whose floor projection is a plane spiral.
