What is difference between Directional antennas and Omni-directional antennas?

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 omni-directional 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 repeaters 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 arrays are used in most cases as directional antennas. Whereas an omni-directional antenna is an antenna system which radiates power uniformly in one plane with a directive pattern shapes in a perpendicular plane. This pattern is often described as "donut shaped" Posted by john_pederson |
