ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for limiting shadowing of RF coverage areas around antennas and closely associated equipment housings is disclosed. The equipment housing and antenna are located in close proximately such that the RF coverage area of the antenna is partially shadowed due to signal blockage by a face of the equipment housing or other structure. The shadowed RF coverage area is eliminated or substantially reduced by placement of a reflector to reflect emitted signals from the antenna into the shadowed RF coverage area.
