From a simple quarter-wave monopole to a phased array with thousands of elements — every antenna works by the same electromagnetic principles, yet each topology makes different trade-offs between gain, bandwidth, size, polarisation, and cost. This series covers the most important antenna types used in modern RF engineering.
