  2. Whip antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whip_antenna

    Whip antennas for portable radios are often made of a series of interlocking telescoping metal tubes, so they can be retracted when not in use. Longer whips, made for mounting on vehicles and structures, are made of a flexible fiberglass rod around a wire core and can be up to 11 m (35 feet) long. The length of a whip antenna is determined by ...

  3. Antenna types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_types

    Not to be confused with the similar shaped, but much larger axial mode helix , nor to be confused with loop-type antennas. [o] Ground plane A whip antenna with several rods extending horizontally from base of the whip in a star-shaped pattern, similar to an upside-down radiate crown, that form the artificial, elevated ground plane that gives ...

  4. Rubber ducky antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_ducky_antenna

    The rubber ducky antenna (or rubber duck aerial) is an electrically short monopole antenna, invented by Richard B. Johnson, that functions somewhat like a base-loaded whip antenna. It consists of a springy wire in the shape of a narrow helix , sealed in a rubber or plastic jacket to protect the antenna. [ 1 ]

  5. Dual-band blade antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-band_blade_antenna

    A blade antenna on a military aircraft in Japan. This is not a dual-band type. A dual-band blade antenna is a type of blade antenna, which is a monopole whip antenna mounted on the outside of an aircraft in the form of a blade-shaped aerodynamic fairing to reduce air drag. It is used by avionics radio communication systems.

    Tactical Vest Antenna System (TVAS) is a type of wearable antenna designed for use by the United States Armed Forces.It is claimed that troops equipped with the TVAS are more effective than those equipped with conventional whip antennas due to better concealment of the equipment and improved mobility of the operator.

  7. Whip-a-way - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whip-a-way

    An antenna top cap installed on the tip of the antenna provides protection for personnel. The construction is the same as is used for sectional fishing poles. The base has a male 3/8-24 thread which is the same as is used on most ham radio and CB antennas. The antenna was 9 feet long when fully assembled.

  8. Log-periodic antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log-periodic_antenna

    An antenna array consisting of two such antennas, one above the other and driven in phase has a gain of up to 17 dBi. Being log-periodic, the antenna's main characteristics ( radiation pattern , gain, driving point impedance ) are almost constant over its entire frequency range, with the match to a 300 Ω feed line achieving a standing wave ...

  9. Cantenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantenna

    A Pringles cantenna for Wi-Fi. The cylinder portion of the can may consist of metal-coated paperboard.. Although some designs are based on a Pringles potato chips can, this tube is too narrow to increase the 2.4 GHz signal by a useful amount, [1] although at 5 GHz it would be about the right size.
