An intuitive tutorial of antennas and antenna theory. This website is designed to present a comprehensive overview of antennas, from design, to measurement and theory.

A fundamental list of antenna theory concepts, an antenna basics menu is given here. Topics include directivity, polarization, bandwidth, impedance, frequency bands, all things necessary …

Introduction to the subjects of this webpage. The focus is on an intuitive tutorial on antennas and antenna theory.

Antenna Arrays are described. Weighting methods, geometry and fundamentals are presented. Antenna arrays are commonly called phased arrays.

A fundamental list of antenna theory concepts, an antenna basics menu is given here. Topics include directivity, polarization, bandwidth, impedance, frequency bands, all things necessary …

The full-wavelength dipole antenna is more directional than the shorter quarter-wavelength dipole antenna. This is a typical result in antenna theory: it takes a larger antenna in general to …

In this section, we'll introduce the fundamental antenna types. Almost every antenna in the world can be understood as some combination or derivative of the antennas listed on this page.

Parabolic reflector antennas, commonly called satellite dish antennas, are explained.

Testing of real antennas is fundamental to antenna theory. All the antenna theory in the world doesn't add up to a hill of beans if the antennas under test don't perform as desired.

Measuring an antenna's radiation pattern and gain is discussed. The general idea and necessary steps are indicated. The idea of planar cuts (such as E-plane or H-plane) are introduced for …
