Standard whip or rubber duck antennas are extremely common due to their low cost and design simplicity. They work very well for long range transmission when the orientation doesn’t change and ...

A UHF reader antenna that emits radio waves in a circular pattern. These antennas are used in situations where the orientation of the tag to the reader cannot be controlled. Since the waves are moving ...

Mobile TV broadcasting to handheld devices and car-top antennas and the need to reach indoor antennas has led to increased interest in elliptical and circularly polarized antennas. Antenna ...

In response to the changing demands of wireless audio installations, RF Venue has unveiled it CP Stage antenna. Housed in a durable, low-profile enclosure, the CP Stage easily mounts to microphone ...

This is a very technical question. Since I am not an RF engineer, I reached out to a few people for the answer. Before I provide an answer, let me explain what the terms mean, for those who don’t know ...

Small ceramic patch elements offer nearly perfect single-frequency receive characteristics and have become the standard for GPS L1 antennas. However, the new generation of GNSS receivers now being ...

Several readers wrote in following my recent discourse on antenna basics requesting some followup on the subject, particularly in the area of antenna polarization. While not a physicist, I can share a ...
