  1. yagi

    A Yagi is a type of directional antenna system, also known as a Yagi-Uda antenna, used in radio communications to transmit and receive signals in specific directions. It was named after its inventors, Hidetsugu Yagi and Shintaro Uda, who developed the antenna system in the 1920s. The Yagi antenna is characterized by a single 'driven element' consisting of a dipole or folded dipole antenna, and additional 'parasitic elements' which include a 'reflector' and one or more 'directors'. Its purpose is to increase gain, by focusing transmitted signals in a specific direction, and reducing interference from unwanted sources.
