2 High RF (HiRF) EMC Solutions Overview Q par Angus Ltd have teamed up with TMD Technologies Ltd to produce a range of unrivalled antenna and amplifier solutions that exceed the latest HiRF specifications. The horn antennas have been specially developed by Q par Angus to deliberately focus the RF energy at short distances from the aperture, and thus overcome the near field limitations of traditional designs. Features Nine specialised antennas cover the frequency range GHz. Six broadband amplifiers cover the range 1 to 18 GHz, each having output powers in excess of 4 kw. In excess of 3 kv / m at one metre is now achievable in free field tests. 3 db spot sizes are 150 mm or greater. All exceed Latest Category K specification.

3 Category K GHz range with TMD amplifier set 7000 Typical Volts / metre at one metre 400 MHz 1 GHz antenna Typical Volts / metre at one metre 1 kw input System Performance Category L Function Computed electric field plot showing the focussing action of the horn onto a plane at one metre from the aperture, represented by the rectangular box. 18 Focussing is achieved either by using dielectric lenses or by dividing the aperture up into four cophased smaller horn antennas. In the latter case the horns are also squinted in towards the target. The squint angle is adjustable: this allows the spot size to be traded off against field intensity to suit test conditions. Antennas, Accessories and Services Calibration and test antennas, traceable to National Standards. Mobile support tower with polarisation rotation facility and variable height adjustment. Field probe antennas. High power low loss cables, couplers and attenuators. Equipment racking. Assistance with on site installation and system verification.
