S Band Antenna Image

The S-Band Antenna from IQ Spacecom is a Satellite Antenna that has an operating frequency range of 1980-2500 MHz. It has a gain of 6-11 dBi and a bandwidth of 50 MHz. This patch antenna has a beamwidth of +/- 40 Degrees (Horizontal, Vertical) and an F/B ratio of greater than 20 dB.  It is inherently circularly polarized and has a VSWR of less than 1.25. The antenna supports SMA (female) or a UMP connector for the RF interface. It weighs 49 g (single), 62 g (dual), and 180 g (quad) and measures 70 x 70 x 3.4 mm (Single patch), 80 x 100 x 3.4 mm (Dual patch), and 160 x 160 x 3.4 mm (Quad patch). The antenna has achieved TRL 9 with numerous successful LEO missions and is designed for pico and nanosatellite applications to realize satellite-to-ground links.
