What Is a Biconical Antenna?
A biconical antenna features a unique design of two cone-shaped reflectors or radiators positioned back to back. This configuration enables it to support a broad range of electromagnetic wave reception or transmission.
Its wide bandwidth, spanning several to tens of octaves, makes the biconical antenna superior in covering extensive frequency ranges compared to traditional antennas. Adjustments in its installation and design allow for targeted signal directionality, either for receiving or broadcasting purposes.
This antenna finds utility in diverse fields including wireless communications, radar operations, wireless LAN networks, and frequency analysis. Its straightforward structure contributes to the ease of manufacturing and installation, enhancing its appeal across various technological domains.
