  2. Television antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_antenna

    It is a simple half-wave dipole antenna used to receive the VHF television bands, consisting in the US of 54 to 88 MHz and 174 to 216 MHz , with wavelengths of 5.5 to 1.4 m (18 to 5 feet). It is constructed of two telescoping rods attached to a base, which extend out to about 1 m (3.3 feet) length (approximately one-quarter wavelength at 54 MHz ...

  3. RC-5 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC-5

    Each bit of the RC-5 code word contains 32 carrier pulses, and an equal duration of silence, so the bit time is 64×27.778 μs = 1.778 ms, and the 14 symbols (bits) of a complete RC-5 code word take 24.889 ms to transmit. The code word is repeated every 113.778 ms (4096 ÷ 36 kHz) as long as a key remains pressed.

  4. Space–time block code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space–time_block_code

    Space–time block coding is a technique used in wireless communications to transmit multiple copies of a data stream across a number of antennas and to exploit the various received versions of the data to improve the reliability of data transfer.

  5. List of Antenna TV affiliates - Wikipedia

    The following is a listing of affiliates for Antenna TV, [1] a classic television network, which was launched on January 1, 2011, by Tribune Broadcasting [2] and is now owned by Nexstar Media Group. [ 3 ]

  6. Antenna diversity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_diversity

    The actual selection process can take place in between received packets of information. This ensures that a single antenna connection is maintained as much as possible. Switching can then take place on a packet-by-packet basis if necessary. Combining: In combining, all antennas maintain established connections at all times. The signals are then ...

  7. Space–time code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space–time_code

    A space–time code (STC) is a method employed to improve the reliability of data transmission in wireless communication systems using multiple transmit antennas. STCs rely on transmitting multiple, redundant copies of a data stream to the receiver in the hope that at least some of them may survive the physical path between transmission and ...

  8. Antenna tuner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_tuner

    An antenna tuner, a matchbox, transmatch, antenna tuning unit (ATU), antenna coupler, or feedline coupler is a device connected between a radio transmitter or receiver and its antenna to improve power transfer between them by matching the impedance of the radio to the antenna's feedline. Antenna tuners are particularly important for use with ...

  9. Channel Master - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_Master

    Channel Master's original product was a prefabricated television aerial with hinged elements which would unfold and snap into place; this patented design greatly reduced installation time as existing antenna designs at the time had to be bolted together from multiple pieces by rooftop installers.
