About
The Antenna Post L- and S-bands is a transceiver two-mirror antenna system built on the Cassegrain system. It features a 6.0 m reflector with an irradiating system and a counter-reflector, along with a slewing ring equipped with electromechanical drives. This antenna is specifically designed for use in satellite communications earth stations, enabling operation in both L- and S-bands. It supports circular right polarization and offers wide working angles in both azimuth (± 270°) and elevation (0° … 90°), with operating speeds of less than 4.0°/s for azimuth and less than 3.0°/s for elevation. The system does not include radio receivers and radio transmitting devices. Released in 2016, it has a guaranteed service life of 10 years and an estimated production/delivery time of 12 months. The product can be adapted to customer requirements.
