Model 3117
The Model 3117 Double Ridged
Waveguide is a the latest addition
to a family of double ridge
waveguides for microwave and
EMC measurement from
ETS-Lindgren. This model
corrects the lower gain at the
upper end of the frequency
range, commonly found in ridged
waveguide antennas. Users of
this antenna benefit from uniform
illumination of target surfaces and
accurate gain measurement. In
addition, the Model 3117 exhibits
high gain and low VSWR across
its operational frequency band,
accepting moderate power input of
300 watts.
The electrical characteristics of this
antenna were designed and modeled
using powerful workstations
running electromagnetic simulation
software. Equally important,
experienced RF engineers worked
with our manufacturing team to
produce a practical and affordable
realization of the modeling
process. All production units are
individually calibrated at our A2LA
accredited lab.
FEATURES
Single Lobe Radiation Pattern
The Model 3117 maintains a single
main lobe pattern in the direction
of the horn axis over its frequency
range. This characteristic is
essential for even distribution of
electromagnetic energy on a target
surface, and accurate measurement
of gain and vector information.
The Model 3117’s unique design
suppresses the propagation of
high order modes. The result is
an antenna with a well-defined
single lobe radiation pattern that
outperforms other antennas in its
class.
Ultra Broadband
The Model 3117 sweeps from
1 GHz to 18 GHz without stopping
for band breaks, making it ideal
