2. Radio masts and towers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_masts_and_towers

   A mast radiator or mast antenna is a radio tower or mast in which the whole structure is an antenna. Mast antennas are the transmitting antennas typical for long or medium wave broadcasting. Structurally, the only difference is that some mast radiators require the mast base to be insulated from the ground.

3. Television antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_antenna

   A short antenna pole next to a house Multiple Yagi TV aerials. Antennas are commonly placed on rooftops and sometimes in attics. Placing an antenna indoors significantly attenuates the level of the available signal. [19] [20] Directional antennas must be pointed at the transmitter they are receiving; in most cases great accuracy is not needed ...

4. Tower Mounted Amplifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_Mounted_Amplifier

   A Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA), or Mast Head Amplifier (MHA), is a low-noise amplifier (LNA) mounted as close as practical to the antenna in mobile masts or base transceiver stations. A TMA reduces the base transceiver station noise figure (NF) and therefore improves its overall sensitivity ; in other words the mobile mast is able to receive ...

5. Driven and parasitic elements - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Driven_and_parasitic_elements

   Yagi antenna for UHF TV reception with 22 parasitic elements; 4 reflectors attached to the vertical bracket at left, and 18 directors attached to the horizontal beam at right. The driven element is attached to the black box next to the reflectors. The antenna is most sensitive to radio waves coming from the right, parallel to the antenna's axis.

6. Monopole antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopole_antenna

   Showing that due to its reflection (b), the monopole antenna (a) has the same radiation pattern over perfect ground as a dipole in free space (c) with the same current but twice the voltage Vertical radiation patterns of three common length monopole mast radiator antennas over perfect ground. The distance of the line from the origin at a given ...

7. Utility pole - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_pole

   Steel poles should meet industry specifications such as: TIA/EIA-222-G, Structural Standard for Antenna Supporting Structures and Antennas (current); TIA/EIA-222; Structural Standards for Steel; and TIA/EIA-RS-222, or an equivalent requirement set to help ensure a robust and good quality pole is being used. Fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) poles

8. Guy-wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy-wire

   Electromagnetic fields from the antennas complicate the design of guys that support mast antennas. Conductive metal guy-wires whose lengths are near to quarter wavelength multiples of the transmitted frequency can distort the radiation pattern of the antenna. This also applies to guy wires of neighboring masts or nearby metal structures.

9. Antenna types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_types

   A discone is exceptionally wideband, offering a frequency range ratio of up to approximately 10:1 , over three octaves above the antenna's lowest frequency, but otherwise only functions just as well as other quarter-wave monopoles: It is omnidirectional, vertically polarized, equally efficient as a monopole, and has gain similar to a ground ...
