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 product design engineers, the HBA-2030’s patent-pending balun design provides greatly improved 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.

Applications

• Designed primarily for immunity testing, but the balance and pattern of the HBA-2030 easily meet the requirements for emissions measurements

Features

• Improved balun provides superior patterns and balance
• Improved cage design provides enhanced low frequency performance and mode-free operation to 300 MHz and higher
• Moderate power handling capability accommodates a wide range of immunity testing applications
• Individually calibrated with signed certificate of calibration.
