Technical Performance
Dual linear polarization with high polarization purity and isolation
Mono-mode excitation on a 3:1 bandwidth
No sidelobes and no pattern nulls in the forward hemisphere
Low interaction between probe and the antenna under test
Design
Wideband orthomode junction (OMJ) based on inverted quad-ridge circular waveguide with external feeding circuits, feeding a circular aperture
Easily interchangeable apertures with tapered ends to minimize diffraction effects
Surface treatment
Alodine 1200 according to MIL-C 5541E class 3
Polyurethane paint
Repeatability
Repeatable radiation performance due to the axial symmetry of the interchangeable apertures
Precision machined
Standard MVG circular interface for precision centering
Precision pin for accurate polarization alignment
High reliability RF components
