Collinear dipole array on repeater for radio station JOHG-FM on Mt. Shibisan, Kagoshima, Japan. In telecommunications, a collinear antenna array (sometimes spelled colinear antenna array) is an array of dipole or quarter-wave antennas mounted in such a manner that the corresponding elements of each antenna are parallel and collinear; that is, they are located along a common axis.
Several hand-held Project 25 radios used around the world. Project 25 (P25 or APCO-25) is a suite of standards for interoperable digital two-way radio products. P25 was developed by public safety professionals in North America and has gained acceptance for public safety, security, public service, and commercial applications worldwide. [1]
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.
Land mobile radio systems are widely used by the military. Separate bands in the radio spectrum are reserved for their use. This includes portions of the 30-50 MHz band, and the entire 100-100, 100-100.8, and 540-2400 MHz bands, plus shared use of the 170- 170 MHz band.
A police initiative pressuring the government to create legislation to stop online streaming of scanner captured police communications was announced in April 2012. [8] Although it is currently legal to stream information from a scanner in Canada, [citation needed] using the information for profit is not legal. Some Canadian police forces use ...
Smart antennas (also known as adaptive array antennas, digital antenna arrays, multiple antennas and, recently, MIMO) are antenna arrays with smart signal processing algorithms used to identify spatial signal signatures such as the direction of arrival (DOA) of the signal, and use them to calculate beamforming vectors which are used to track and locate the antenna beam on the mobile/target.

Height above average terrain (HAAT), or (less popularly) effective height above average terrain (EHAAT), is the vertical position of an antenna site above the surrounding landscape. HAAT is used extensively in FM radio and television , as it is more important than effective radiated power (ERP) in determining the range of broadcasts ( VHF and ...
