词条 | Choke ring antenna |
释义 |
A choke ring antenna is a particular form of omnidirectional antenna for use at high frequencies. It consists of a number of conductive concentric cylinders around a central antenna. Due to its delicate construction, it is often enclosed in a protective cover or radome when placed outside and exposed to the elements. Choke ring antennas are notable for their ability to reject multipath signals fading from a source. Since the path that a signal takes from a transmitter to receiver can be used to measure the distance between the two, this makes it highly suited for GPS and radar applications. In a GPS ground-based receiver, a choke ring antenna can provide millimeter precision measurements[2] for surveying and geological measurement applications. The choke ring design originated at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.[3] See also
