ETS-Lindgren 3180B Broadband Mini-Bicon Antenna 30 MHz – 3 GHz
Description
The ETS-Lindgren Model 3180B Broadband Mini-Bicon Antenna has been designed for optimal performance across the frequency range of 30 MHz – 1 GHz (cage elements) and 30 MHz – 3 GHz (cone elements). The Model 3180B’s uniquely designed elements provide an omnidirectional pattern, without the beam splitting.
The Model 3180B is ideal for the free space NSA (FSNSA) test for fully anechoic rooms. Its small size allows for harmonic monitoring when testing per the IEC 61000-4-3.
Frequency Range
The Model 3180B covers the traditional frequency range EMC measurements. Additionally, the Model 3180B covers all of the VHF and UHF bands, making it ideal for spectrum monitoring of FM, TV and some cellular phones.
With the small cone elements in place, the 3180B can be used up to 3 GHz.
Radiation Pattern
The Model 3180B has been designed to have a radiation pattern that is omnidirectional. The elements have been optimized to avoid any splitting of the main radiation beam in the elevation cut.
Flexible Mounting System
The Model 3180B antenna includes both an EMCO block mount and a rear “stinger” mount.
