Question Answer
Azimuth chart H-plane = top-down view
Elevation chart E-plane = side view
Represents a change of 5 dB Each concentric circle on a logarithmic chart
Measurement from the centre, or strongest point, of the antenna signal to each of the points along the horizontal and vertical axes where the signal decreases by half power Beamwidth
Radiate in all directions Omnidirectional Antennas
Patch, Panel, Yagi are ______ types of antenna Semi directional Antennas
Can be used effectively in libraries, warehouses, and retail stores with long aisles of shelves Patch
Have a horizontal beamwidth of 180 degrees or less, a minimal amount of signal will radiate outside of the building Patch
Used for short to medium distance point to point connections of up to about 3.2kms Yagi
Strictly for point to point communications (typically between buildings) Highly Directional Antennas
Types of Highly directional antennas: - Parabolic Dish - Grid Antennas
Special type of high-gain, semi-directional antenna that provides a pie-shaped coverage pattern Sector Antennas
A group of two or more antennas that are integrated together to provide coverage Antenna Arrays
Method of concentrating RF energy Beamforming
Beamforming using directional antennas to provide a fixed radiation pattern Static Beamforming
Focuses RF energy in a direction in a particular shape Dynamic Beamforming
Uses an adaptive antenna array that manoeuvres the beam in the direction of the receiver dynamically Dynamic Beamforming
Transmits multiple phase-shifted signals with the hope and intention that they will arrive in-phase at the location where the transmitter believes that the receiver is located Transmit Beamforming
Use _________ channel-sounding process to optimize the phase differentials between the transmit chains Implicit TxBF
Requires feedback from the stations in order to determine the amount of phase-shift required for each signal Explicit TxBF
Defined in 802.11ac equiring the use of channel measurement frames and both the transmitter and receiver to support beamforming Explicit TxBF
When light travels from one point to another it travels across what is perceived to be an unobstructed straight line which is known as ____________________ Visual Line of Sight (Visual LOS)
Has no bearing on whether or not a RF transition will be successful or not Visual Line of Sight (Visual LOS)
RF Line of Sight is also referred to as ________ The Fresnel zone
Imaginary, elongated, football-shaped area that surrounds the path of the visual LOS between two point-to-point antennas. The Fresnel zone
If the _______ Fresnel Zone becomes obstructed it will have a negative influence on the RF Communications First Fresnel zone
Two or more antennas with a receiver functioning together to minimize the negative effects of multipath. Antenna diversity
Measurement of the change in impedance to the AC Signal Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR)
