4.0 Application
The Model 3164 Open Boundary Quad-Ridged Horns can be used as transmit or
receive antennas for measuring all wireless telecommunications devices, such as
cell phones and Internet devices. Additionally, the antennas cover most of the
common radar and MW bands used in military applications.
When an antenna is configured for receive mode, it can be used to measure
far field antenna patterns for the two orthogonal polarizations simultaneously.
When an antenna is configured for transmit mode, it can be used to transmit
signals from a base station simulator. Many intrinsic RF properties of wireless
handsets can be measured at these two configurations. The user may also
configure the same system to measure the RF interaction between a wireless
handset and the operator.
The Model 3164 Series can also be configured to transmit or receive circularly
polarized signals for testing antennas or receiving devices for Global Positioning
Systems.
