Homemade Antennas Implementation: A Comparative Analysis of the Quality of Service
The wireless antennas have become essential to our life as can be seen at our homes, workplaces, schools, and some other common places. This paper describes the construction of three homemade wireless antennas operating in the frequency band of 2.4 Ghz and replicating the signal to increase the covering area of the network up to 10 meters without loss of the signal quality. Also, a comparative study against a commercial antenna is described, regarding the effectiveness and the efficiency, in order to determine the benefits of the proposed implementation
Keywords: Homemade antenna, Wireless network, Performance, Quality signal
