Fortunately, countries from different continents have joined hand in hand in defeating the threat of ISIS. That is why these countries have used state of the art weapons and tools to annihilate this vicious terrorist group and save the people. The military radio antenna has been used to make communication easier and more effective.

The antenna is an electrical tool that converts electrical power into radio waves and vice versa. Its application is not only limited for communication purposes. This article has listed several applications of the antenna. Read on.

Radar. This belongs to the greatest weapons used by the US armed forces to detect the enemies. That is why ships, space crafts, airplanes, jets and guided missiles are equipped with radar. Unknown to most people, radar is just the shortened word for Radio Detection And Ranging. It is an effective tool that identifies the distance, speed, and angle of an object. This tool transmits radio waves that will reflect the object in its path.

Satellite Antenna or SATCOM. SATCOM is used in broadcasting, space probe communication, naval purposes, and weather research usage. It relays and boosts the telecommunication signals. The signals are reflected back to Earth. It can cover wider areas and farther distances. There are four forms of SATCOM, the horn, parabolic, phased array, and helica.

Communication receiver. This black box device has efficient transmission capabilities. It is known for its eminent stability and veracious level of performance. It has also been widely utilized in military operations for effective connection.

Two way radio. The oldest devices used in communication. This device functions like a walkie talkie, because it has a talk button where the other person talks or listens. Two persons will take time talking and listening because they cannot talk at the same moment.

Bluetooth enabled devices. Tools equipped with Bluetooth are now widely used in military purposes. It is one effective way of synchronizing the several devices at once. It is a wireless technology device that lets people connect and exchange information over short distances.

Mobile phones. It is definitely the most popular form of antenna application. It makes communication possible no matter where you are in the world. It is equipped with Bluetooth and infrared. It can also let you send text message and emails. The top for mobile phone manufacturers are Apple, Samsung, LG, and Nokia.
