WiFi Antenna types

Parabolic grid & dish wireless antenna

This highly directional antenna type transmit/receives signals in a very narrow angle, so they are ideal for long distance and point to point network connections.

It has a main reflector surface that is shaped like a paraboloid with an active element at its focus. That way reflector surface can reflect parallel signals to a single focal point.

Parabolic wireless antenna are the best choice because very narrow beam-width will provide you:

  • minimum interference with another wireless networks

  • longest signal distance & faster link

Yagi wireless antenna

 A Yagi array wireless antenna is a semi-directional antenna commonly used in wireless communications.

Yagi antenna is made from the array of dipoles (elements) parallel to each other exactly the same a s a standard TV rooftop antenna. The first (longest) element in this array is the reflector, second is the driven element and other elements are directors. The more directors the more gain.

The are often house in cylinders to protect from the weather.

Omni directional Wifi antenna

This antenna sends and receives signals equally in all directions (360 degrees). Because of that property, this antenna type usually have the lowest gain and is used in point to multipoint links.

An omni-directional antenna with an increased gain will increase distance, but decrease it's effectiveness above and below the antenna, while low-gain type will do the opposite.

imaging the output of a standard supply 2dbi antenna the shape of a doughnut, its circular and fat, as the gain increases the doughnut is flattened out like a pancake to increase its range, this has the downside of losing signal off its low and high points.

Again these antenna are housed in a fibre-glass tube to weatherproof.
