ETS-LINDGREN’S MODEL 3142E-PA
BICONILOG is a hybrid antenna that
combines innovative design, compact size, and excellent performance
with a pre-amplier module. This
antenna enables users to measure
a frequency range of 30 MHz to
6 GHz in one sweep, negating the
need for multiple antennas and timeconsuming equipment setup. The
antenna and pre-amplier module
are calibrated together including the
cable section that connects the mod-
ule to the antenna port. Any possible
mismatch between the pre-amplier
and the antenna is taken into ac-
count in the antenna factor.
FEATURES
Frequency Range
The Model 3142E-PA covers the
entire range of the 3142E antenna
from 30 MHz to 6 GHz.
Pre-amplifier Module
The pre-amplier attached to the
antenna has a frequency range of
30 MHz to 6 GHz and a minimum
typical gain of 55 dB. The gain atness is ± 2.5 dB and the noise gure
is 3 dB above 200 MHz and 5 dB
typical below 200 MHz. The power
output is +20 dBm minimum at the
1 dB point.
The input and output characteristics
of the pre-amplier are an input
and output VSWR of 2.0:1 maximum. The operating temperature
ranges from -20°C to +75°C (-4°F to
+167 ° F ).
Emissions and Immunity Antenna
The 3142E-PA is an emissions only
antenna, with the pre-amplier
increasing the signal level received by
the antenna. By placing the pre-
amplier close to the antenna the
signal to noise ratio is preserved in
the amplied signal.
Flexible Mounting
The Model 3142E-PA’s mounting bracket accepts either a 1/4 20
thread screw or rear stinger mount.
The pre-amplier module attaches
to the antenna via a exible coaxial
cable, so that the antenna can be supported by the stinger. The 3142E-PA
includes two brackets to mount the
pre-amplier module to the carrier
of any motorized mast. This allows
the antenna to be scanned from 1m
to 4m, as required by the standard.
Individually Calibrated
The 3142E is individually calibrated
at 10 m per ANSI C63.5.
