New Wideband Horn Antenna Caters for EMC Test Applications From 200MHz to 2GHz

lm540Link Microtek, the manufacturer of RF and microwave components and subsystems, has introduced a new open-sided, linearly polarized horn antenna that operates over the wide frequency range 200MHz to 2GHz.

Primarily intended for EMC test applications, the AM0.2-2HA antenna can be used as either transmitter or receiver for measurements of products’ immunity or emissions in accordance with international EMC standards laid down by organisations such as IEC, ISO and CISPR.

The antenna can handle up to 200W of microwave power and features a low average VSWR of 1.6:1, a field strength capability of 250V/m at 1m and a nominal impedance of 50 ohms. It also offers excellent gain uniformity, with gain only varying from 5 to 9dBi over the entire operating frequency range.

EMC & eMobility

For a company embarking on EMC testing for either component or vehicle-level testing of their EV products, it is necessary first to have a good understanding of the EMC regulatory situation.

The horn antenna is equipped with a precision N-type female connector and a mounting bracket that enables the user to switch between vertical and horizontal polarisations. A standard camera thread allows easy mounting on a wide variety of tripods.

The AM0.2-2HA antenna is fabricated from aluminium to provide a rugged, corrosion-resistant construction. It measures 980 x 980 x 730mm, yet weighs only 12kg.
