Cisco 640-721 - Implementing Cisco Unified Wireless Networking Essentials (IUWNE) </p> <p>The antenna is the most basic and an important component of a wireless network. It is of importance for the simple reason that it is the antenna because of which a wireless network offers proper coverage and is not limited to 2 or 3 feet. What is required is the right kind of antenna for enjoying a good coverage. The article covers the basic concepts related to antennas.</p> <h2>Polarization</h2> <p>An antenna is designed with the objective of emitting electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves are capable of moving in different directions. Polarization is the term used for describing this movement of the electromagnetic waves.</p> <p>The primary objective of an antenna is to emit waves that are electromagnetic in nature. The nature of the wave is determined by the electro part of it. An electromagnetic wave is capable of moving in different directions. Polarization defines the way an electromagnetic wave moves. Polarization is of three types:</p> <ul> <li>Vertical: As it is clear from the name vertical polarization refers to the upward and downward movement of the electromagnetic waves.</li> <li>Horizontal: Horizontal polarization refers to the movement of the electromagnetic waves on a linear plane.</li> <li>Circular: This refers to the circular movement of the waves.</li> </ul> <p>The three types of polarization are illustrated below.</p> <p><img src="/web/20210508190050im_/https://www.test-king.com/design/images/articles/42.png" alt="Vertical Polarization" height="230px" width="200px" style="margin-left:30%;"> <img src="/web/20210508190050im_/https://www.test-king.com/design/images/articles/43.png" alt="Horizontal Polarization" height="230px" width="200px"></p> <p style="margin-left:30%;"><b><em>Vertical Polarization</em></b> <b><em>Horizontal Polarization</em></b></p> <img src="/web/20210508190050im_/https://www.test-king.com/design/images/articles/44.png" alt="Circular Polarization" height="230px" width="200px" style="display:block; margin:0 auto;"> <p align="center"><b><em>Circular Polarization</em></b></p> <p>Charges current or stationery generate an electric field and due to the presence of this magnetic field, the same is referred to as electromagnetic field. The magnetic and the electric field exist perpendicular to each other and are generated at the same point of time however the generation of the magnetic field takes place by charges that are moving. It is important to understand the type of polarization for the reason that the placing of the antennas is determined by it.</p> <h2>Diversity</h2> <p>Reflections result in the traffic taking different paths this is termed as the multipath issue. One of the ways that can be employed for dealing with these issues is to use multiple antennas on a single AP. This is termed as Diversity. Diversity increases the chances of receiving a better signal on any of the antenna.</p> <p>The working principle is simple. Two antennas of the same types are to be placed a wavelength apart. It has to be ensured that both the antennas offer coverage to the same cells and are able to sample all signals that are coming. The moment the AP detects a frame, using an algorithm it determines the antenna that has a better signal. Once an antenna has been selected it is used for the entire frame.</p> <p>Diversity is also used while determining the antenna to be chosen while transmitting to a client. The principle followed in this case is that the last antenna that was used for receiving a signal from a particular client will be used for transmitting back to the same client.</p> <div style="border-top: 1px solid #dcdcdc; padding-top: 10px;"> <h2 class="h2 _mb_8px">Related IT Guides</h2> <ol> <li><a class="link" style="font-size: 13px;" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210508190050/https://www.test-king.com/guide-640-721-determining-signal-strength-influences.htm">Determining Signal Strength Influence</a></li> <li><a class="link" style="font-size: 13px;" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210508190050/https://www.test-king.com/guide-640-721-wlan-topologies-1.htm">Discusses wireless LAN topologies from a high-level perspective (Part I)</a></li> <li><a class="link" style="font-size: 13px;" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210508190050/https://www.test-king.com/guide-640-721-wlan-toplogies-2.htm">Discusses wireless network topologies defined by the IEEE (Part II)</a></li> <li><a class="link" style="font-size: 13px;" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210508190050/https://www.test-king.com/guide-640-721-rf-signals.htm">How Bandwidth is achieved from RF Signals</a></li> <li><a class="link" style="font-size: 13px;" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210508190050/https://www.test-king.com/guide-640-721-influences-on-wireless-transmissions.htm">Influences on Wireless Transmissions</a></li> <li><a class="link" style="font-size: 13px;" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210508190050/https://www.test-king.com/guide-640-721-modulation-techniques-and-how-they-work.htm">Modulation Techniques and How They Work</a></li> </ol> </div> </section> </div> <aside class="aside _border _p_0"> <!-- ====================================================== Money Back --> <div class="aside__b-block _bb b-block _orange"> <p class="b-block__title">Money Back Guarantee</p> <div class="b-block__b-money-back b-money-back"> <div class="b-money-back__img"> <img src="/web/20210508190050im_/https://www.test-king.com/design/images/guary.png" alt="Guarantee"> </div> <p class="b-block__text">Test-King has a remarkable Candidate Success record.
