  2. Faraday cage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage

    The reception or transmission of radio waves, a form of electromagnetic radiation, to or from an antenna within a Faraday cage is heavily attenuated or blocked by the cage; however, a Faraday cage has varied attenuation depending on wave form, frequency, or the distance from receiver or transmitter, and receiver or transmitter power.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Radio_waves.svg

    English: Diagram of the electric fields (E) and magnetic fields (H) of radio waves emanating from a quarter-wave monopole radio transmitting antenna (small dark vertical line in the center). The diagram is a cross section of the three-dimensional radiation pattern, which is symmetrical about the vertical axis of the antenna (vertical dotted ...

  4. Electromagnetic shielding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_shielding

    A conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a Faraday cage. The amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of holes in a shield to an incident electromagnetic field.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Crystal_radio...

    It consists of an antenna attached to a tuned circuit, which functions as a bandpass filter which allows through the frequency of the desired station while rejecting all the other radio signals picked up by the antenna, followed by a detector consisting of a semiconductor diode which extracts the audio modulation signal (sound) from the radio ...

  6. Low-noise block downconverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-noise_block_downconverter

    Cross-section across a low-noise block downconverter Viewing of the pin and the horn antenna in a low-noise block downconverter. The LNB gets its power from the receiver or set-top box, using the same coaxial cable that carries signals from the LNB to the receiver. This phantom power travels to the LNB; opposite to the signals from the LNB.

  7. Beam waveguide antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_waveguide_antenna

    Diagram of a beam waveguide antenna from NASA, showing the signal path (red). A beam waveguide antenna is a particular type of antenna dish, at which waveguides are used to transmit the radio beam between the large steerable dish and the equipment for reception or transmission, like e.g. RF power amplifiers.

  8. Radiation-absorbent material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation-absorbent_material

    An RF anechoic chamber used for EMC testing. In materials science, radiation-absorbent material (RAM) is a material which has been specially designed and shaped to absorb incident RF radiation (also known as non-ionising radiation), as effectively as possible, from as many incident directions as possible.

  9. Electromagnetic absorbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_absorbers

    Electromagnetic absorbers are specifically chosen or designed materials that can inhibit the reflection or transmission of electromagnetic radiation.For example, this can be accomplished with materials such as dielectrics combined with metal plates spaced at prescribed intervals or wavelengths.
