Indoor antenna

An indoor antenna is a type of radio or TV antenna placed indoors, as opposed to being mounted on the roof. They are usually considered a simple and cheap solution to receive transmissions. An indoor antenna is prone to picking up electrical noise, but digital broadcasts are resistant to this noise.

TV set-top indoor antenna ("Rabbit Ears") for VHF and UHF reception.

Description edit

An indoor antenna is a type of radio or TV antenna placed indoors, as opposed to being mounted on the roof.

Use edit

Indoor antennas are a common solution for cord cutting, with a variety of commercial options.[1] They are usually considered a simple and cheap solution that may work well when the receiver is relatively near to the broadcasting transmitter and the building walls do not shield the radio waves too much.[citation needed]

Being close to other electric or electronic equipment in the building, an indoor antenna is prone to picking up more electrical noise that may interfere with a clear (analog) reception.[2] Used for digital broadcast, the noise is less of a factor than analog broadcast, which recently makes this type of antenna a more popular solution.[citation needed]

Indoor antennas are used for radio reception, particularly the folded dipole constructed from twin-lead,[3] which can be nailed to a skirting board.
