About
The Antenna feeder device is specifically designed for use as part of earth stations in C-band satellite communications. This transceiver single-mirror antenna system includes an antenna with a 2.4 m reflector, an irradiating system, and a slewing ring with electromechanical drives. It does not include radio receivers or radio transmitting devices. The product was released in 2012 and has a guaranteed service life of 15 years. It can be adapted to customer requirements, with an estimated production and delivery time of 9 months. Its specifications include a reflector diameter of 2.4 m, a receive frequency range of 3.4-4.2 GHz, and a transmission frequency range of 5.7-6.6 GHz. It supports circular polarization and offers a receive gain of at least 35.7 dB and a transmission gain of at least 40.2 dB. The cross polarization interchange is at least 30 dB. The antenna operates with working angles in azimuth of ± 270° and in elevation from 0° to 90°, with working speeds of less than 1.0°/s.
