Model 3117

The Model 3117 Double-Ridged
Waveguide

is a the latest addition to a
fami ly of double -r i dge d wavegu id e
horn antennas for microwave and
EMC measurement from ETS­Lindgren. Users of this antenna
benefit from uniform illumination of
target surfaces and accurate gain
measurement. In addition, the
Model 3117 exhibits high gain and
low V SWR across its frequency band,
accepting moderate power input of
300 watts.

The electrical characteristics of this
antenna were designed and modeled
using powerful workstations running
electromagnetic simulation software.
Equally important, experienced RF

ETS-Lindgren’ s Model 3117 Double-Ridged W aveguide Horn

engine ers worked w ith ou r
manufacturing team to produce a
practical and affordable
realization of the modeling
process. On completion, the
antenna was tested and calibrated
at our A2LA accredited lab facility.
All production units are individually
cali brate d at t hi s f ac i l ity.

Features

Single Lobe Radiation Pattern

The Model 3117 maintains a single
main lobe pattern in the direction
of the horn axis over its frequency
range. This characteristic is
essential for even distribution of
electromagnetic energy on a target
surface, and accurate

measurement of gain and vector
information. The Model 3117’s
unique desig n suppresses the
propagation of hig h order modes.
The result is an antenna with a
well-defined single lobe radiation
pattern that outperforms other
antennas in its class.

Ultra Broadband

The Model 3117 sweeps from 1 GHz
to 18 GHz without stopping for band
breaks, making it idea l for
automated test ing . It has the w ide st
usable frequency range of any
antenna in its class, with no
perform ance de grad ation from h i g h
order modes.

Model 3117

Power Input

The Model 3117 uses a Type N
connec tor and accepts up to
300 watts of continuing input power
with up to 400 watts of peak p ower.
The antenna’s high gain and low
VSWR over its operating frequency
translates into efficient amplifier
use and high field strengths.

Uniform Gain, Low VSWR

The Model 3117 has a more
uniform gain and antenna factor
bec ause of th e be tter behav ior of
its radiation pattern. Since the
pattern is stable over frequency,
the gain and the AF also remain
stable. Simila r anten nas of t his
class exhibit la rge variations of the
gain and the AF as the frequency
increases.

Construction

An antenna constructed to
maximize structural integrity is
better able to maintain its
electr ical propert ies. The benefits
are better measurement
repeatability, lower uncertainty
values and longer calibration
validity. The Model 3117 is
constructed to be a rugged
antenna that thrives in an
environment of constant use. This
antenna includes both tripod and
rear “st i nge r” moun ts. Th e s t ing er
mount permits on-axis rotation/
polarization.
