  • Active Antennas versus Passive Antennas: The Difference between Active Antennas and Passive Antennas

    03/26/2020

    A passive antenna is a radiating element composed entirely of passive components. Typically, this means that a passive antenna system is one with at least a passive radiator (antenna element), passive impedance matching, passive balun, passive tuning (capacitive or inductive), and passive interconnect (commonly 50 Ohm or 75 Ohm impedance). A circulator or isolator may ..
