Beacon Antenna - High Temperature Space Environment AO5459NASA
Frequency Range: 5.4 - 5.9 GHz
Applications
- NASA Sounding Rockets
The Model AO5459NASA antenna is a slotted blade utilizing only stainless steel and teflon construction. The rugged construction allows operation at the high temperatures encountered in missile re-entries
Power Divider Model PD5459NASA
Matched power dividers are used when systems require two or more antennas to acheive spherical coverage. Usually two antennas are placed diametrically apart and fed 180° out of phase.
