N10-005 · Question #926

Which of the following antenna types has a flat circular radiation pattern?

The correct answer is C. Omni. An omnidirectional (omni) antenna radiates signal equally in all horizontal directions (360°), producing a flat, donut-shaped radiation pattern. This makes it ideal for providing broad coverage in all directions from a central point, such as a wireless access point. A Yagi…

Explanation

An omnidirectional (omni) antenna radiates signal equally in all horizontal directions (360°), producing a flat, donut-shaped radiation pattern. This makes it ideal for providing broad coverage in all directions from a central point, such as a wireless access point. A Yagi antenna is highly directional, focusing signal in a narrow beam toward a specific target. A patch antenna is also directional, with a defined forward-facing beam. A diversity antenna system uses two or more antennas to reduce multipath interference but does not describe a single radiation pattern type.
