Fig.l0.2. Simple active antenna
An active design allou's the
construction of antennas of limited
size and / or wide
frequency range' and are primarily
used in situations where a
simpler and more
receptive large antenna is either
impractical (inside a portable
radio) or impossible
(suburban residentiar area

Power for the active components may be supplied by batteries, a filtered power
supply, or through the signal feeder itself (phantom power). Antennas containing
active impedance translating and optionally amplifuing stages are usually used
only for receiving, since operation of such stages is unidirectional.
Without amplifiers, the loss of the coaxial cable will have a severe impact on
performance. With an active uirt.nnu, it is possible to use long cables and still
maintain pgrformance.
