3116C-PA Double-Ridged Waveguide Horn with Pre-Amp
Frequency Range: 18 GHz – 40 GHz
ETS-LINDGREN’S MODEL 3116C-PA is a special version of our popular Model 3116C Double-Ridged Waveguide Horn Antenna, fitted with a pre-amplifier package and calibrated as a single unit. By doing this, any possible mismatches between antenna and pre-amplifier are taken into account in the antenna factor (AF), which is provided with this unit. The antenna is ideal as a receive antenna for emissions testing above 18 GHz.
The pre-amplifier attached to the antenna has a frequency range of 18 GHz to 40 GHz and a typical gain of 35 dB. The gain flatness across the range is ± 3 dB and the noise figure is 3.7 dB. The power output is +8 dB minimum at the 1 dB point. The input and output characteristics of the pre-amplifier are an input and output VSWR of 2.9:1 maximum. The operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +75°C (-40°F to +167°F).
