Appendix E Wir eless LANs P-870HN-51D User’s Guide 335 Antenna Overview An antenna couples RF signals onto air . A tr ansmitter within a wireless device sends an RF signal to the antenna, whic h propagates the signal through the air . The antenna also operates in reverse by capturing RF signals from the air .
Appendix E Wirele ss LA Ns P-870HN-51D User’s Guide 336 • Omni-directional antennas send the RF sign al out in all directions on a horizontal plane. The cover age area is torus-sh aped (like a donut) which makes these antennas ideal for a room environment.
