VHF Transmitting Antenna<br />

Polarization<br />

174–230 MHz<br />

H<br />

l Antenna array of dipole panels (page 69) for different radiation patterns.<br />

l Especially suitable for mounting on square masts.<br />

l The feeder network is made up of coaxial power splitters and flexible connecting cables<br />

in accordance with the radiation patterns specification and the transmitting power.<br />

Input<br />

Connectors according to IEC, EIA or DIN.<br />

Frequency range<br />

174 – 230 MHz<br />

VSWR<br />

< 1.05 in the operating channels after tuning.<br />

Impedance<br />

50 Ω<br />

Polarization Horizontal. Application of panels K 53 33 57<br />

allows vertical polarization as well.<br />

Internal connections<br />

Connectors according to IEC, EIA or DIN<br />

are used throughout the system,<br />

allowing easy assembly and maintenance.<br />

Max. power<br />

According to customer’s requirements.<br />

Vertical radiation pattern<br />

Null fill and beam tilt upon request.<br />

Horizontal radiation pattern Omnidirectional, directional or custom-designed.<br />

Half antenna splitting Upon request, the antenna can be divided into<br />

2 halves (for measurement and maintenance).<br />

The 2 halves are connected by a<br />

2-way power splitter or patch panel.<br />

Pressurization<br />

Splitters and connecting cables can be supplied<br />

with dry air (please specify when ordering).<br />

Painting<br />

If required, the antenna is painted in aviation<br />

warning colours.<br />

Grounding<br />

Via mounting parts.<br />

Max. wind velocity<br />

225 km/h<br />

* Referred to λ/2 dipole. Attenuation of the internal cabling and the gain-decrease<br />

in case of null fill in the vertical radiation pattern are not considered.<br />

Approximate values for gain decrease:<br />

cable attenuation: 0.2 – 0.5 dB<br />

null fill:<br />

0.3 – 1.0 dB<br />

Gain figures are valid for the direction of maximum radiation (see diagrams on<br />

following page).<br />
