Essential to any wireless network is the proper acquisition and placement of wireless antennas. Wireless networks today use three types of antennas:
Omni-directional antennas are analogous to a light bulb in a house, providing a small range of light equally in all directions. Semi-directional antennas are like spotlights in that they generally spread a light in a single direction. Finally, highly directional antennas are like searchlights, offering a strong beam of light in a single direction. |
