Unique design gives R&S® HF907 double-ridged waveguide horn antenna optimized gain in EMC testing
The R&S® HF907 covers a wide frequency range from 800 MHz to 18 GHz. As a transmit and receive antenna, it can both generate disturbance and detect radiated emissions of devices under test (DUTs). During these measurements, the antenna’s flat gain permits even illumination of the DUT. In EMC tests, manufacturers and operators of electronic equipment benefit from distortion free radiation patterns and obtain exact results. In the past, conventional double-ridged waveguide horn antennas exhibited gain losses at one or more points in the frequency range, which was reflected in the radiation pattern.
The R&S® HF907 antenna is compact and weighs only 1.9 kg, which makes it ideal for use in EMC labs and test chambers – especially in connection with EMC test equipment and test systems from Rohde & Schwarz.
