3. Wire antenna
Dipole Antenna
• the simplest of all antennas
• It is simply an open-circuited wire,
fed at its center

Special cases
• Short
• Half-Wave
Dipole

4. Wire antenna
Monopole Antenna
• it is one half of a dipole antenna
• It is almost always mounted above
some sort of ground plane.
• It is built on the image theory

5. Wire antenna
Broadband Dipoles
• an antenna can be made more
broadband by increasing the volume
it occupies
