AN91445 explains antenna design in simple terms and provides guidelines for RF component selection, matching network design, and layout design. This application note also recommends two Cypress-tested PCB antennas that can be implemented
Before we can design an antenna or discuss antenna types, we must understand the basics of antennas, which are the fundamental parameters that characterize an antenna. So let us learn something. We'll start with frequency and step through radiation patterns, directivity and gain, and ultimately close with an explanation on why antennas radiate.
Basic Antennas is a comprehensive introduction to antennas—basic concepts, practical designs, and details of easy-to-build antennas. You’ll learn how to make antennas that really work! This book will provide a foundation in antenna theory and design necessary for anyone under-taking more advanced topics.
This book contains everything you need to understand how radio signals propagate, how antennas work, and how to construct your own antenna system. Use The ARRL Antenna Book to build hundreds of antenna designs: dipoles, verticals, loops, beams, and more.
This is a professional level, introductory text on antenna principles, design, analysis, and measurements. It is especially suitable for persons who wish to improve their knowledge of antenna principles, concept design, performance analyses, and measurements.
The antenna designs presented here are specifically cut to the dimensions necessary f or proper operation in 140 -150 MHz VHF band. Each chapter deals with a particular design and an extra chapter at the last part is added to help the constructor in converting the given antenna dimensions for other frequencies.
The Basics. Ward Silver NØAX. Antennas radiate (or receive) because electrons are accelerated (or are caused to accelerate) in the antenna’s elements. Radio or electromagnetic waves are both an E- (electric) and H- (magnetic) field. Electrons move parallel to E-fields. Strongest radiation from accelerating electrons linearly (back and forth)
