A directional antenna is an Antenna which radiates greater power in one or more directions allowing for increased performance on transmit and receive and reduced interference from unwanted sources. Directional antennas like yagi antennas provide increased performance over dipole antennas when a greater concentration of radiation in a certain direction is desired. All practical antennas are at least somewhat directional, although usually only the direction in the plane parallel to the earth is considered, and practical antennas can easily be Omnidirectional in one plane. The most common types are the Yagi Antenna , the Log-periodic Antenna , and the Corner Reflector , which are frequently combined and commercially sold as residential TV antennas. Cellular Repeater s often make use of external directional antennas to give a far greater signal than can be obtained on a standard Cell Phone . For long and medium wavelength frequencies, Tower Array s are used in most cases as directional antennas. SEE ALSO |
