Rohde & Schwarz HL024S8 Log Periodic Antenna 1 GHz – 18 GHz
Description
Rohde & Schwarz HL024S8 Crossed Log Periodic Antenna 1 GHz – 18GHz is suitable for the reception of linearly polarized waves. Two RF connectors are provided for simultaneous use of both polarization planes.
It consists of the R&S®HL024A1 crossed log-periodic antenna and two broadband preamplifiers. The antenna can also be used as a feed for the R&S®AC008 microwave directional antenna.
The preamplifiers can be optionally switched on. They prevent a significant reduction in S/N due to loss in RF cables connecting the antenna to a receiver.
Features
- Wide frequency range
- Selectable broadband preamplifiers
- Simultaneous connection of both polarization planes
- No reduction in S/N due to the use of a low-noise amplifier at the antenna output
- Can be used as a feed for the SHF Directional Antenna Systems R&S®AC090 to R&S®AC300
