DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF AN ANTENNA BOOSTER (WI-FI SIGNAL ANTENNA BOOSTER)
ABSTRACT
This study is on the design and construction of an antenna booster usinf Wi-Fi signal antenna booster as the focus of the study. Wi-Fi signals are susceptible to signal loss as they travel hence Wi-Fi users are rarely completely satisfied with the signal strength offered by the off-the-shelf Wi-Fi cards, routers and access points. This project research intends to introduce a device which can provide Wi-Fi users with high signal strength and at a lower cost in order to enable them have a seamless, uninterrupted and reliable communication. This project includes the steps for Biquad antenna construction, steps for the construction of a Wi-Fi booster circuit and the working of the Wi-Fi booster system as a whole. This project includes in its beginning chapter an introduction into what an antenna booster is and its applications. Also, the aims and objectives of the project and the scope of the project are discussed in this chapter. The succeeding chapter looks at the history of Wi-Fi antenna boosters and their various types. Chapter three of this project describes the equipment and software used for the construction process of both the biquad and the booster circuit. Chapter four of this project describes the testing and operation of the system as a whole. The last chapter of this project gives a conclusion of the research carried out, problems encountered and recommendation.
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
An antenna booster is a device which is designed to amplify reception or received signals so that a marginal signal can be utilized. The way the antenna booster works is that it expands the area of the antenna, allowing it to pick up more of a weak signal and then translate it into a stronger signal for the device that the antenna is attached to. Antenna boosters can be used to improve radio signals in any frequency band be it the Very Low Frequency (VLF) band or the Extremely High Frequency (ELF) band.
There are a number of products on the market which claim to be able to improve signal quality by acting as an antenna booster. Some of these products actually work but others do not. Anybody interested in buying an antenna booster should do a research or read the reviews of various products online before buying.
