HBA-2030 High Power Biconical Antenna

Product Overview

The TDK RF Solutions HBA-2030 High Power
Biconical Antenna is a new generation biconical
dipole that covers the operating frequency range
of 20 MHz to 300 MHz. The HBA-2030 offers
an unprecedented combination of high power
handling, balance, and pattern control, which
makes it an excellent choice for immunity measure­ments.

Precision Design Designed in-house by our

Data Sheet

product design engineers, the HBA-2030’s patent­pending balun design provides
balance at low frequencies. The unique cage
design provides improved antenna factor at the
low end as well as mode-free operation to 300
MHz and higher. The HBA-2030 is manufactured
using low-tolerance, precision fabrication methods
to minimize intrinsic uncertainties. This mechani­cally-precise, weld-free design yields predictable
performance and delivers accurate, consistent
measurements.

Immunity and Emissions Measurements For

radiated immunity testing, the HBA-2030 is a
highly efficient radiator with a low VSWR (<2.5:1
average). The HBA-2030’s high power handling
capability (3500W continuous) accommodates
the majority of immunity test applications.
