  2. Directional antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directional_antenna

    Directional antenna. A multi-element, log-periodic dipole array. A 70-meter Cassegrain radio antenna at GDSCC, California. Patch antenna gain pattern. A directional antenna or beam antenna is an antenna which radiates or receives greater radio wave power in specific directions. Directional antennas can radiate radio waves in beams, when greater ...

  3. Radiation pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_pattern

    The first antenna is the test antenna whose patterns are to be investigated; this antenna is free to point in any direction. The second antenna is a reference antenna, which points rigidly at the first antenna. Each antenna is alternately connected to a transmitter having a particular source impedance, and a receiver having the same input ...

  4. Direction finding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direction_finding

    Direction finding antenna near the city of Lucerne, Switzerland. Direction finding (DF), or radio direction finding (RDF), is the use of radio waves to determine the direction to a radio source. The source may be a cooperating radio transmitter or may be an inadvertant source, a naturally-occurring radio source, or an illicit or enemy system.

  5. Azimuthal equidistant projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azimuthal_equidistant...

    The azimuthal equidistant projection is an azimuthal map projection. It has the useful properties that all points on the map are at proportionally correct distances from the center point, and that all points on the map are at the correct azimuth (direction) from the center point. A useful application for this type of projection is a polar ...

  6. Omnidirectional antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omnidirectional_antenna

    Omnidirectional antenna. In radio communication, an omnidirectional antenna is a class of antenna which radiates equal radio power in all directions perpendicular to an axis (azimuthal directions), with power varying with angle to the axis (elevation angle), declining to zero on the axis. [1][2] When graphed in three dimensions (see graph) this ...

  7. Effective radiated power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_radiated_power

    Effective radiated power (ERP), synonymous with equivalent radiated power, is an IEEE standardized definition of directional radio frequency (RF) power, such as that emitted by a radio transmitter. It is the total power in watts that would have to be radiated by a half-wave dipole antenna to give the same radiation intensity (signal strength or ...

  8. Nadir - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadir

    Nadir also refers to the downward-facing viewing geometry of an orbiting satellite, [2] such as is employed during remote sensing of the atmosphere, as well as when an astronaut faces the Earth while performing a spacewalk. A nadir image is a satellite image or aerial photo of the Earth taken vertically. A satellite ground track represents its ...

  9. Directivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directivity

    Directivity. In electromagnetics, directivity is a parameter of an antenna or optical system which measures the degree to which the radiation emitted is concentrated in a single direction. It is the ratio of the radiation intensity in a given direction from the antenna to the radiation intensity averaged over all directions. [1] Therefore, the ...
