A dipole antenna, is a radio antenna that can be made of a simple wire, with a center-fed driven element. It consists of two metal conductors of rod or wire, oriented parallel and collinear with each other (in line with each other), with a small space between them. The radio frequency voltage is applied to the antenna at the center, between the two conductors. These antennas are the simplest practical antennas from a theoretical point of view. They are used alone as antennas, notably in traditional "rabbit ears" television antennas, and as the driven element in many other types of antennas, such as the Yagi. Dipole antennas were invented by German physicist Heinrich Hertz around 1886 in his pioneering experiments with radio waves.
One example of a dipole antenna is the old style TV rabbit ears antenna, which is a folded dipole.
A dipole antenna is any antenna with 2 active elements. In a straight dipole the elements have the same axis. In a folded dipole the elements are at an angle to each other. Dipole antennas connect to the transmitter or receiver with balanced (frequently unshielded) and ungrounded transmission line.
A trap dipole lacks the efficiency, bandwidth, and often the directional pattern of a
full-sized one. Its main advantage is its smaller size, hence the ability to fit it into a
smaller available space. It may also be possible to use it on more than one frequency
band if the bands are harmonically related.

Is folded antenna nothing but the conical antenna?
A folded antenna is a dipole type.
What are the advantage of Yagi-uda array?
The Yagi array allows a significant increase in antenna gain (expressed in dBi or Db over isotropic) by the simple addition of parasitic elements to a dipole or folded dipole.
What is the half wave dipole?
effective height of half wave dipole antenna
Why dipole antenna not used for high frequency?
Depends on what you mean by high frequency. The rabbit ears antenna used in broadcast TV is a dipole and is used for VHF.
The type of antenna used for the television broadcasting?
Dipole
What is Directivity of the small loop and short dipole has ratio?
The directivity of a small loop antenna is higher than that of a short dipole because the loop antenna is more directional and concentrates radiation in one direction. The ratio can vary depending on the dimensions and configuration of each antenna, but in general, the loop antenna can have a directivity several dB higher than the dipole.
How loop antenna and dipole antenna can be used interchangeably?
A full-wave loop antenna can be interchanged with a folded dipole without much difference. The input impedance is similar and the only difference is in the directivity: a full wave loop radiates along the axis of the loop, while a vertical folded dipole is omnidirectional.
Claculate the length of the dipole antenna at 450 MHz?
245
Why counterpoise is used in dvor?
Counterpoise is used in a dipole vertical antenna to improve its performance by providing a balanced electrical path for the antenna. This helps to reduce common-mode currents and improve the antenna's efficiency in transmitting and receiving signals. By using a counterpoise, the dipole antenna can achieve a better radiation pattern and impedance matching.
What is the value of radiation resistance of half wavelength dipole antenna?
36 ohm
What is the Application of Rhombic antenna?
dipole antennas evolved antennas ground anteena
How horn antenna is fed?
Horn antenna are typically fed by a section of a waveguide, the waveguide itself is often fed with a short dipole.
