A new version of EN 4604-009 was published by the European Committee for Standardization. EN 4604-009:2014 applies to “Aerospace series – Cable, electrical, for signal transmission – Part 009: Cable, coaxial, light weight, 50 ohms, 180 °C, type KW (light WN) – Product standard.” The new version is available for purchase on the CEN website.

Description*

“This European Standard specifies the required characteristics of a light weight coaxial cable, 50 Ω, type KW for use in aircraft electrical systems at operating temperature between  55 °C and 180 °C and specially for high frequency up to 6 GHz. Nevertheless, if needed,  65 °C is also acceptable as shown by rapid change of temperature test.”

Near and Far Field Measurements with a Vector Network Analyzer

For optimal performance in over-the-air RF systems, antennas must meet specific requirements. Performance parameters like size, wind-loading, environmental ruggedness, transmission pattern, bandwidth, and power handling capability should be considered. Methods of measuring the transmission (or reception) pattern that determines antenna gain with a VNA will be examined in this article.
