The 27dBm Transceiver is a 500 milliwatt unit (the Mac mini standard Airport Extreme is around 30) and is available for $180. Sure, that's over a third of the price of the mini itself, but they aren't marketing to the average user—think more along the lines of machines hidden in remote niches.

Building A Better Wireless Antenna


Building A Better Wireless Antenna 03/20/2003 01:05 PM
Much of the success of a mobile device rides on an often-overlooked piece of technology -- its antenna. For years, though, improvements have been minor. Lately, a movement has developed toward building radically different antennas for mobile devices.

Evolved antenna designs


Evolved antenna designs 06/28/2004 11:35 AM
This antenna (and may others on the linked page) was evolved by NASA using a genetic algorithm. While highly effective, its design is counter-intuitive.
First, there is the potential of needing less power. Antenna ST5-3-10 achieves high gain (2-4dB) across a wider range of elevation angles. This allows a broader range of angles over which maximum data throughput can be achieved. Also, less power from the solar array and batteries may be required.

Second, the evolved antenna does not require a matching network nor a phasing circuit, removing two steps in design and fabrication of the antenna. A trivial transmission line may be used for the match on the flight antenna, but simulation results suggest that one is not required.

Third, the evolved antenna has more uniform coverage in that it has a uniform pattern with small ripples in the elevations of greatest interest (between 40 and 80 degrees). This allows for reliable performance as elevation angle relative to the ground changes.

Antenna Design's Black Magician


Antenna Design's Black Magician 06/24/2004 04:37 PM
I have a new article online at TheFeature.com about a 60-year-old ham radio head who may have revolutionized antenna design:
Rob Vincent couldn't let anything interfere with love, even interference itself. In 1995, the ham radio buff moved in to his girlfriend's small Rhode Island house to live happily ever after. But there was a hitch. Her small piece of property wasn't big enough for Vincent, his significant other, and the 140-foot antenna he needed to reach his wireless buddies around the world.

Dedicated to both his future wife and his hobby, Vincent spent nearly a decade designing the antenna now standing in his backyard. The 40-foot-high pole bests conventional antennas three times taller. This week, the inventor and his employer, the University of Rhode Island, are filing a patent on the technology...

"The people saying that I'm a snake oil salesman... will have to order a great big plate of crow very soon," Vincent says. Link
