ANTENNA ASSEMBLIES
Exemplary embodiments are disclosed of antenna assemblies configured for reception of television signals, such as high definition television (HDTV) signals. In an exemplary embodiment, an antenna assembly generally includes a VHF antenna element and a UHF antenna element. The VHF antenna element and the UHF antenna element may be parasitically coupled without a direct ohmic connection between the VHF antenna element and the UHF antenna element. The antenna assembly may be configured to be operable for receiving VHF and UHF high definition television signals without using a diplexer and a VHF balun.
Reinforced high strength microwave antenna
A microwave antenna has a radiating portion connected by a feedline to a power generating source, e.g., a generator. Proximal and distal radiating portions of the antenna assembly are separated by a junction member. A reinforcing member is disposed within the junction member to increase structural rigidity.

ROADSIDE APPARATUS AND TRAFFIC COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
A roadside apparatus according to the first aspect includes: a housing including an antenna mounting surface; an antenna connection terminal being provided on the antenna mounting surface, and supporting both a rod antenna and a planar antenna; and a circuit being housed in the housing, and being configured to perform road-to-vehicle communication via a connection antenna connected to the antenna connection terminal. An area of the antenna mounting surface is equal to or larger than an area of the planar antenna. An antenna selected out of the planar antenna and the rod antenna is connected as the connection antenna to the antenna connection terminal.
