Dipole antennas are easy, right? Just follow the formula, cut two pieces of wire, attach your feedline, and you’re on the air. But then again, maybe not. You’re always advised to cut t… ...

Antennas installed at 18 U.S. high schools detected bursts of radio activity that can precede solar disturbances capable of ...

Effectively this is an active antenna that uses a 555 chip or, in [Byon’s] case, a PIC chip to quickly shift between two receiving dipole antennas at either end of a shortened yardstick.

High school students across the U.S., including 10 from Morrison High School, have been part of a project that has detected radio waves associated with solar disturbances using $500 antenna kits, ...

Halfwave DIY FM dipole antenna design. Radiation pattern and gain of fm dipole antenna. Dipoles have a toroidal reception and radiation pattern where the axis of the toroid centers about the dipole.

Meaning "two poles," a dipole antenna is the simplest type of antenna, consisting of an electrically conducting wire or rod one half the length of the maximum desired wavelength. The wire or rod ...

A Dipole antenna consists of two long pieces of wire or metal tubing, forming a straight line but not connected to each other, feeding into a pair of wires leading to a radio receiver.

The dipole antenna is a half-wavelength structure made of wire, tubing, printed-circuit board (PCB) copper, or some other conductive material. It is divided into two equal quarter wavelengths and ...

To create the initial dipole antenna, Dickey, Lazzi, an undergraduate student and a team of graduate students injected the alloy into elastic silicone channels. This created extremely thin antennas ...
