<strong>Circular</strong> <strong>Polarised</strong>, C-<strong>Band</strong>, <strong>Omni</strong> <strong>Antennas</strong> <strong>for</strong><br />
<strong>Tactical</strong> Communications<br />
The most important thing we build is trust<br />
<strong>Circular</strong> <strong>Polarised</strong> <strong>Omni</strong> <strong>Antennas</strong><br />
• Designed <strong>for</strong> high data rate mesh tactical<br />
communication systems<br />
• Vehicle-to-vehicle<br />
• Rugged, with spring mount<br />
It has been demonstrated that circular polarization at these frequencies<br />
provides greater penetration through cluttered environments.<br />
This has prompted our development of two new, medium gain, circular<br />
polarized omni antennas <strong>for</strong> vehicle-to-vehicle, high data rate mesh<br />
tactical communications.<br />
Covering the C-band in two parts, 4.40 to 4.80 GHz and 5.70 to 5.90GHz,<br />
both antennas have left-hand circular polarization, 5dBiC gain, and<br />
beamwidth of 360° azimuth by 22° elevation.<br />
These antennas have a quick deployment mounting system so that one<br />
antenna can be quickly exchanged <strong>for</strong> another. Change-over has a handtightened<br />
interface arrangement with the spring so quick deployment.<br />
The springs can remain in position on the vehicle.<br />
<strong>Omni</strong> antenna reference OA6-4.7L/1755 covers the lower section of the<br />
C-band, frequency range 4.40 to 4.80 GHz and it is finished in tan.<br />
<strong>Omni</strong> antenna reference OA6-5.8L/1756 covers the higher end of the<br />
C-band with a frequency range of 5.7 to 5.9GHz and is finished in tan.<br />
