An antenna mast with four collinear directional arrays. In telecommunications, a collinear (or co-linear) antenna array is an array of dipole antennas mounted in such a manner that the corresponding elements of each antenna are parallel and aligned, that is they are located along a common line or axis.
Collinear dipole array on repeater for radio station JOHG-FM on Mt. Shibisan, Kagoshima, Japan. In telecommunications, a collinear antenna array (sometimes spelled colinear antenna array) is an array of dipole or quarter-wave antennas mounted in such a manner that the corresponding elements of each antenna are parallel and collinear; that is, they are located along a common axis.
Points that are incident with the same line are said to be collinear. The set of all points incident with the same line is called a range. If P 1 = (x 1, y 1, z 1), P 2 = (x 2, y 2, z 2), and P 3 = (x 3, y 3, z 3), then these points are collinear if and only if
This form may be more useful when two vectors defining a plane are involved. An example in physics is the Thomas precession which includes the rotation given by Rodrigues' formula, in terms of two non-collinear boost velocities, and the axis of rotation is perpendicular to their plane.
The projective linear group of n-space = (+) has (n + 1) 2 − 1 dimensions (because it is (,) = ((+,)), projectivization removing one dimension), but in other dimensions the projective linear group is only 2-transitive – because three collinear points must be mapped to three collinear points (which is not a restriction in the projective line ...
Simply, a collineation is a one-to-one map from one projective space to another, or from a projective space to itself, such that the images of collinear points are themselves collinear. One may formalize this using various ways of presenting a projective space. Also, the case of the projective line is special, and hence generally treated ...
This occurs if the lines are parallel, or if they intersect each other. Two lines that are not coplanar are called skew lines . Distance geometry provides a solution technique for the problem of determining whether a set of points is coplanar, knowing only the distances between them.
The quotient of two parallel or anti-parallel vectors is therefore a scalar with absolute value equal to the ratio of the lengths of the two vectors; the scalar is positive if the vectors are parallel and negative if they are anti-parallel. [11]
