Monopole
Literally, one pole, such as a vertical radiator operated against the earth or a ground plane. A handheld rubber duck type of antenna will most likely be a monopole.
Multi-element Dipole Antenna
An antenna consisting of an arrangement of multiple dipole antennas. Note: Various directivity patterns may be obtained by varying the arrangement of the dipoles and the way they are driven.
Multi-Path Propagation
The result of interference from reflections off surfaces surrounding the antenna. This interference changes the target´s return signal strength. Sometimes it is stronger and sometimes weaker than expected. The degree of multi-path propagation…
Multicoupler
A device which splits the source signal into many separate receiver connections.
