Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for reducing antenna multipath and Rayleigh fading are disclosed. In one or more embodiments, a disclosed method for reducing multipath and Rayleigh fading for an antenna comprises receiving, by a structure, at least one undesired electromagnetic (EM) signal. In one or more embodiments, the structure is mounted proximate the antenna. In at least one embodiment, the structure comprises absorber material and/or reflective material. In one or more embodiments, the antenna is mounted on top of the structure. In at least one embodiment, the structure further comprises a core, where the core is covered by the absorber material and/or the reflective material. In at least one embodiment, the core is in the shape of a sphere, a hemisphere, at least a portion of a sphere, an ellipsoid, a torus, a pyramid, a cube, a cuboid, a cylinder, a cone, a polyhedron, or a freeform shape.
