AS-48435 Quad-Ridged Horn Antenna

This pyramidal horn has two orthogonally placed input feeds which provide the capability for simultaneous horizontal and vertical polarization and, with the addition of an optional 90° hybrid, selectable right- or left-hand circular polarization. This antenna is ideally suited for feeding high gain, long focal length, reflectors for surveillance and direction-finding applications. It is also designed for application as a primary radiator and is capable of handling 10 Watts CW and 0.75 kW peak RF power for transmitting applications.

Features:

  • High gain, directional patterns
  • Simultaneous dual linear polarization
  • RF power handling
  • Test, surveillance, and direction-finding applications
