Antenna Design Considerations and How The Maxrad Fiberglass Omnidirectional Antenna Fares

Posted by May Sefin on

The basic four antenna design considerations 

The four basic antenna design factors that one should consider when shopping are system requirements, antenna placement, antenna selection, antenna element design/simulation, and antenna measurements.  

The standard parameters of antennas are bandwidth, antenna radiation pattern, gain, beamwidth, polarization, and impedance. The antenna pattern is how the antenna reacts to a ground plane wave incident from the given direction, or the power density of the wave transmitted by the antenna, in a given calculated direction.

The Maxrad Fiberglass Omnidirectional Antenna

The standard parameters of antennas are bandwidth, antenna radiation pattern, gain, beamwidth, polarization, and impedance. The Maxrad Fiberglass Omnidirectional Antenna displayed above operates at a frequency of 800/900 MHz. It comes with a 16 foot long jumper cable with standard N-Female Connectors. It has a thick walled aluminum mounting base. It is not ground plane dependent!!

The antenna pattern is the reaction of the antenna to a ground plane wave incident from a given direction, or the relative power density of the wave transmitted by the antenna, in a given calculated direction. This antenna has a wide gain of 5.0 dB. It is omnidirectional and radiates more energy than most types of antennas. And it has a low profile and a small footprint, making it an advantageous antenna system.
