  2. Whip antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whip_antenna

    Whip antenna on car. A whip antenna is an antenna consisting of a straight flexible wire or rod. The bottom end of the whip is connected to the radio receiver or transmitter. A whip antenna is a form of monopole antenna. The antenna is designed to be flexible so that it does not break easily, and the name is derived from the whip -like motion ...

  3. 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] The rubber ducky antenna is a form of ...

  4. Monopole antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopole_antenna

    A monopole antenna is a class of radio antenna consisting of a straight rod-shaped conductor, often mounted perpendicularly over some type of conductive surface, called a ground plane. [1][2][3] The driving signal from the transmitter is applied, or for receiving antennas the output signal to the receiver is taken, between the lower end of the ...

  5. Antenna types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_types

    Antennas can be classified in various ways, and various writers organize the different aspects of antennas with different priorities, depending on whether their text is most focused on specific frequency bands; or antenna size, construction, and placement feasibility; or explicating principles of radio theory and engineering that underlie, guide, and constrain antenna design.

  6. Antenna (radio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_(radio)

    Film on working of antenna. In radio engineering, an antenna (American English) or aerial (British English) is an electronic device that converts an alternating electric current into radio waves (transmitting), or radio waves into an electric current (receiving). [ 1 ][ 2 ] It is the interface between radio waves propagating through space and ...

  7. Active antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_antenna

    Active antenna. An active antenna is an antenna that contains active electronic components such as transistors, as opposed to most antennas which only consist of passive components such as metal rods, capacitors and inductors. Active antenna designs allow antennas of limited size to have a wider frequency range (bandwidth) than passive antennas ...
