Re: [Hackrf-dev] What kind of antenna to use?
To add to what Paul said, there are many books written about antennas because they vary significantly from application to application. Most people start with the frequency range they want to cover, then directional or not, then how much gain they hope to get from the antenna, active or passive, and what sort of bandwidth they are going to be looking at. That said, pretty much any antenna can see any signal at least a little bit, so something like the ANT500 is fine when your just noodling around the various parts of the spectrum. --Chuck On Mon, Feb 5, 2018 at 12:41 PM, Jahn wrote: > Can you please recommend an antenna for HackRF? > What kind of antenna do YOU use? > Thanks > > > --- > This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. > https://www.avast.com/antivirus > > ___ > HackRF-dev mailing list > HackRF-dev@greatscottgadgets.com > https://pairlist9.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/hackrf-dev > ___ HackRF-dev mailing list HackRF-dev@greatscottgadgets.com https://pairlist9.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/hackrf-dev
Re: [Hackrf-dev] What kind of antenna to use?
You're not pumping out a ton of RF energy and concerned with matching and balance here. The best best it to get a telescopic antenna that you can adjust/trim for the proper wavelength you're using on the fly: https://www.greatscottgadgets.com/ant500/ - Kevin On Mon, Feb 5, 2018 at 3:41 PM, Jahn wrote: > Can you please recommend an antenna for HackRF? > What kind of antenna do YOU use? > Thanks > > > --- > This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. > https://www.avast.com/antivirus > > ___ > HackRF-dev mailing list > HackRF-dev@greatscottgadgets.com > https://pairlist9.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/hackrf-dev > ___ HackRF-dev mailing list HackRF-dev@greatscottgadgets.com https://pairlist9.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/hackrf-dev
Re: [Hackrf-dev] What kind of antenna to use?
It would depend on the application (transmit and receive?) and frequency band. There is no one correct antenna.
