  2. Reflector (antenna) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflector_(antenna)

    a passive element slightly longer than and located behind a radiating dipole element that absorbs and re-radiates the signal in a directional way as in a Yagi antenna array. a flat reflector such as used in a Short backfire antenna or Sector antenna. a corner reflector used in UHF television antennas. a cylindrical reflector as used in Cantenna.

  3. Ground plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_plane

    In telecommunications, a ground plane is a flat or nearly flat horizontal conducting surface that serves as part of an antenna, to reflect the radio waves from the other antenna elements. In order to be effective the plane has to have a correct relationship with the antenna feed, in the case of a monopole antenna by being connected to the braid ...

  4. Reflective array antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflective_array_antenna

    Reflective array antenna. This reflective array television antenna consists of eight "bowtie" dipole driven elements mounted in front of a wire screen reflector. The X-shaped dipoles give it a wide bandwidth to cover both the VHF (174–216 MHz) and UHF (470–700 MHz) bands. It has a gain of 5 dB VHF and 12 dB UHF and an 18 dB front-to-back ratio.

  5. Television antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_antenna

    A television antenna, also called a television aerial (in British English), is an antenna specifically designed for use with a television receiver (TV) to receive terrestrial over-the-air (OTA) broadcast television signals from a television station. Terrestrial television is broadcast on frequencies from about 47 to 250 MHz in the very high ...

  6. Cassegrain antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassegrain_antenna

    A beam waveguide antenna is a type of complicated Cassegrain antenna with a long radio wave path to allow the feed electronics to be located at ground level. It is used in very large steerable radio telescopes and satellite ground antennas, where the feed electronics are too complicated and bulky, or requires too much maintenance and alterations, to locate on the dish; for example those using ...

  7. Parabolic antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_antenna

    A parabolic antenna is an antenna that uses a parabolic reflector, a curved surface with the cross-sectional shape of a parabola, to direct the radio waves. The most common form is shaped like a dish and is popularly called a dish antenna or parabolic dish. The main advantage of a parabolic antenna is that it has high directivity.

  8. Parabolic reflector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_reflector

    A parabolic (or paraboloid or paraboloidal) reflector (or dish or mirror) is a reflective surface used to collect or project energy such as light, sound, or radio waves. Its shape is part of a circular paraboloid, that is, the surface generated by a parabola revolving around its axis. The parabolic reflector transforms an incoming plane wave ...

  9. Cassegrain reflector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassegrain_reflector

    The Cassegrain reflector is a combination of a primary concave mirror and a secondary convex mirror, often used in optical telescopes and radio antennas, the main characteristic being that the optical path folds back onto itself, relative to the optical system's primary mirror entrance aperture. This design puts the focal point at a convenient ...
