1 - 18 GHz Wide Band Lens Horn Antenna

Datasheet
This Antenna, based on our popular 1 - 18 GHz Wideband Horn, retains the advantages of small size and wideband performance whilst offering enhanced gain and improved antenna radiation pattern smoothness.
Model Number WBH1-18S
Despite its small size, it punches above its weight offering good gain, VSWR and radiation pattern performance right up to 18 GHz. 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. The higher gain feature of this antenna makes it ideal for materials testing.
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.
