Model 3183
THE ETS-LINDGREN MODEL 3183 
BROADBAND MINI-BICON ANTENNA 
was designed for CISPR 16 chamber characterization. The antenna 
has a broadband frequency range 
of 1 GHz - 18 GHz. Its omnidirectional pattern conforms to CISPR 16 
specications.
FEATURES 
Frequency Range
The Model 3183 is designed to 
have the lowest possible VSWR 
across its range of operation.  
The antenna exhibits an average 
2:1 VSWR.
Radiation Pattern
The radiation pattern of the 
Model 3183 is omnidirectional in 
ETS-Lindgren’s Model 3183 Mini-Bicon Antenna
the H-plane. This means the 
antenna can receive signals from 
every direction around its axis.
CISPR 16 Conformance
The radiation pattern closely conforms to the CISPR 16 requirements 
for chamber validation. Because of 
its small size, the antenna can also 
be used for amplier harmonic 
measurements when performing 
tests per the IEC 61000-4-3.
Spectrum Monitoring
The Model 3183 can be used for 
EM Field surveying and spectrum 
monitoring. The low weight design 
allows use as a eld surveying tool, 
in conjunction with a portable 
spectrum analyzer.
