10dbi Horn Antenna 1-10GHz

Description

The 1–10 GHz range covers the vast majority of modern wireless communications, including 4G LTE, 5G NR (Sub-6), Wi-Fi 2.4/5/6 GHz, and various radar frequencies. This horn antenna uses a double-ridged waveguide design to maintain electrical stability across its entire 10:1 frequency ratio. The internal ridges provide the necessary impedance matching to ensure that the radiation pattern remains consistent, preventing “beam squinting” at higher frequencies.

Precision-machined from high-grade aluminum, these antennas are lightweight yet mechanically robust. They are typically equipped with an N-Type Female connector for low-loss integration and are designed to be mounted on non-metallic tripods to eliminate signal reflections during sensitive compliance testing.

Key Technical Advantages

• Massive Bandwidth: A single antenna replaces multiple standard gain horns, covering the full spectrum from 1 GHz to 10 GHz.

• Predictable Gain: Maintains a nominal 10dBi gain with minimal fluctuation, which is essential for accurate antenna calibration.

• High Power Handling: Capable of handling high input power (typically 250W–500W), making it suitable for generating strong fields in immunity testing.

• High Directivity: The focused beam pattern effectively filters out off-axis interference, providing a high signal-to-noise ratio.

• Stable Antenna Factor: Provides the repeatability required for international EMC standards and mission-critical RF research.
