it depends on existing amplifier or not , if after antenna there's an amplifier it called active else it called passive which less sensitive that active .
A passive antenna is an antenna that is not powered by an amplifier.
An active device amplifies the signal by some value - such as an active filter using an OPAMP. A passive device does not provide any amplification - such as a passive filter network of inductors and capacitors.
A monolithic entity is a type of integrated circuit used in electrical engineering. It has both active and passive devices.
is a thermocouple an active or passive transducer?-why?
passive
An active antenna is an antenna which has an amplifier attached very closely to it. The antenna/amplifier system is called an active antenna. It is used for receiving signals only. The idea is to set the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) before the signal travels along a transmission line where it is susceptible to interference and loss.
An active antenna is powered antenna, this includes a RF amplifier and a power supply so it must be "plugged in" somewhere. A standard "passive" antenna has no amplifier.
A passive antenna is an antenna that is not powered by an amplifier.
A capacitor is to electricity as a glass is to water. Both are passive devices, they can be filled and they can be emptied.
An active device amplifies the signal by some value - such as an active filter using an OPAMP. A passive device does not provide any amplification - such as a passive filter network of inductors and capacitors.
In electronics any device that just pass along a signal by its characteristics is defined as passive.
An active antenna has a amplifier built in, a standard antenna does not. AKA powered antenna.
passive
Active means devices that perform functions in a non linear fashion [amplifiers] passive are components that perform according to a set of linear rules
Passive and active air cooling and liquid cooling. What three methods or devices are used to cool a CPU
active and passive
They are both passive devices. An active device is a device that uses semiconductors (or tubes) to process signals instead of using the natural processes of capacitance, inductance or resistance.
