Radial
can refer to:
A
radial
is a
Line
drawn along a
Vector
.
A radial
Pattern
is one that appears to
Radiate
from a
Point
, like the
Spoke
s from the hub of a
Wheel
.
In
Radio
, evenly-
Spaced
points along evenly-spaced radials on a
Map
are used to determine
Average
Elevation
Above Mean Sea Level
(
AMSL
) within a
Radio Station
's coverage area (including
Broadcast
stations and
Mobile Phone
Tower
s, among others). This in turn determines
Height Above Average Terrain
(
HAAT
), which greatly affects a station's range (more so than
Power
), and potential for
Interference
with other stations. Stations at low
Frequencies
like the
AM Broadcast Band
also require
Grounding
or
Earthing
wires to be
Buried
in the
Soil
in a radial pattern, in order to have a proper
Ground Plane
. These wires are also called radials,
ground radials
, '''grounding radials''', or '''earthing radials'''.
