stacked-dipole antenna

stacked-dipole antenna

[′stakt ′dī‚pōl an‚ten·ə] (electromagnetism) Antenna in which directivity is increased by providing a number of identical dipole elements, excited either directly or parasitically; the resultant radiation pattern depends on the number of dipole elements used, the spacing and phase difference between the elements, and the relative magnitudes of the currents.
