It depends upon the type of antenna. For example, a Yagi antenna's gain can be increased by adding elements. A parabolic antenna's gain can be increased by increasing the diameter of the antenna. All antennas can have their gain increased by lowering the loss of the feed line. By replacing regular coaxial cable with nitrogen pressurized coax, the overall gain at the receiving end can be increased. Gain can also be increased by inserting an amplifier between the antenna and the receiver. Another method of increasing gain is to reduce the VSWR, or voltage standing wave ratio.

∙ 13y agoAntenna gain is the measure of the. directionality of an antenna. It is defined as the output power radiated in a particular direction compared to the power output in any direction by an isotropic omnidirectional antenna. The increase in power output in one particular direction is at the expense of power radiated in other directions. That is, power output can be increased in one direction by decreasing it in other directions.
Another concept related to the antenna gain is effective area. Effective area of an antenna is related to the physical size and shape of an antenna.

Explain the factors that determine an object's kinetic energy?
There are two factors that determine and object's kinetic energy. The two main factors are mass and velocity.
What are the two factors that determine a materials density of wood?
The two factors that determine a material's density (such as that of wood) are its mass and volume.
What factors determine velocity of stream?
Speed and direction determine velocity
Which are two factors determine an objects velocity?

Name at least two factors that determine force of impact?
One of the factors that determine force of impact is the object's mass. Another factor that will determine the force of impact is the object's velocity.
What is unity gain antenna?
an antenna with 0 gain. What you hear and transmit is what you get from your 2-way radio.
How far does a low power television station broadcast?
That depends on a number of factors. Antenna height both receive and transmit. Transmitter power and antenna gain. About 15 miles max.
What is gain of typical TV FM vhf only home antenna?
The actual numbers are not as important as the knowledge that generally speaking, the larger the antenna the more gain it will have. Three other main factors are the Distance from the transmitting antennas are from your location and the Height of your antenna above the ground and what Obstructions there might be between the two antennas.
In electronic devices what are the factors that determine the voltage gain of an amplifier.?
The amplification factor Vout/Vin determines the voltage gain.
When antenna diameter is doubled what will happen to antenna gain?
increases by 6 dB
The of an antenna depends upon the frequency of the RF signal and the gain?
The size of an antenna depends upon the frequecny of the RF signal and the gain.
What is the effective radiated power formula?
EIRP (Dbm)= Output Power(Dbm)-Losses(from cables & adapters)+Antenna Gain(Db)
What is microstrip patch array antenna?
microstip patch array antenna is basically ,thecollection of antenna that give the double directive gain
If antenna is passive than how can it add gain?
Antennas provide so called passive gain, which means it comes from particular shape of the antennaThe gain of an antenna is a passive phenomenon - power is not added by the antenna, but simply redistributed to provide more radiated power in a certain direction than would be transmitted by an isotropic antenna. If an antenna has a gain greater than one in some directions, it must have a gain less than one in other directions, since energy is conserved by the antenna.SOURCE: wikipedia.com
Where can I go to get the latest high gain antenna around?
http://www.amazon.com/Cisco-Linksys-High-Antenna-Connectors-HGA7T/dp/B0002F3G7M is a great place to get the latest high gain antenna with great prices.
What is antenna tilt?
Antenna gain of base station for a specific user depends on antenna pattern, antenna orientation (azimuth and tilt) and user's coordinates with respect to base station.
Why are gain produced in antenna?
A simplified explanation is that the antenna does for radio waves what a lens does for light because of physics.
