gth = c/f of light: 3.108 m/s dio Frequency for WLAN, f = 2.4 GHz
used carrier frequencies are a little bit higher (see frequency table above), for optimal results take 31 mm for antenna lenght.
atical formula: y = a (x - p)2+ q et, take 0 zontally displacement, take 0 2 plified formula: y = a (x)2 or y = x /4f where a= 1/4f ; use this equation to design your own parabola

de wireless cantenna is the best for home applications. gger the diameter of the cantenna, the more access points you will detect at the same time. vity is dependent of the diameter of the cantenna. a gain is much higher when you will place the antenna in front of the computer or placing a metallic shield behind the receiver!!! oes not effect the RF signal. s indeed will cause a signal drop!! B can dongle is the best if you want to detect more than one access point at the same time our antenna as high as possible ood care about your connectors, the types listed above give the best results!!!!
