New 1 - 18 GHz World's Smallest Linear Polarised Horn Antenna Launched
Fitting into the palm of a hand, and with an aperture size at just over a quarter wavelength at the lowest frequency, this must be the smallest and lightest wide band 1 GHz horn in the market. Despite this, it punches above its weight offering good gain, VSWR and radiation pattern performance right up to 18 GHz.
Features
- World's smallest 1 - 18 GHz antenna: just 84 x 80 x 137 mm
- Reasonable Gain across the band
- Stable radiation patterns
- Suitable for use as a Reflector Feed or Stand Alone antenna
- Applications include Radio Astronomy, Spectrum Monitoring or Surveillance and EMC Emission tests
The small size has been achieved from a total re-design of the launcher region so that only the aperture now determines the minimum frequency. Its compact nature and low frontal profile will prove useful for minimally invasive situations such as electric field probing.
The antenna is ruggedly constructed from aluminium and engineering plastics. Top, bottom and back pieces are machined out of solid aluminium for low mass and high mechanical stability.
It is normally totally enclosed and made weatherproof. The photograph shows the front radome removed, exposing the ridges.
The horn is available now for purchase. Please contact sales@q-par.com or telephone +44 (0) 1568 612138 for more information or a quote, Contact Us
