Airborne Instrumentation Antenna for Tactical Common Datalink (TCDL) Applications STANDARD FEATURES: 14.4–15.35 GHz Frequency Coverage Linear Polarization Rugged, High-Thermal Characteristics Small, Lightweight, Rigid Structure Low Aerodynamic Drag Tactical Common Datalink Airborne Data Relay High-Performance Airborne Vehicles Airborne Communications Border Surveillance Signal Intelligence TECOM has a diverse line of rugged airborne instrumentation antennas that provide high data-rate communication capabilities for airborne vehicles. Our standard product line includes antenna products that are scalable in frequency, and offer superior performance for mission requirements from UHF to Ku-Band. The TECOM series of airborne antennas serves a critical need for use on small- and medium-sized vehicles where internal space is not available for flush cavity antennas. Their streamlined aerodynamic form yields a lightweight, low-drag antenna, which universally mounts to any vehicle structure with minimal modification. TECOM’s omni-directional airborne TCDL antenna operates from 14.4-15.35 GHz in Ku-Band, and is linearly polarized. Each biconvex blade antenna is pre-tuned to customer specifications within the TCDL frequency band. Models are available for both higherand lower-temperature applications, and all are designed to operate as single, stand-alone antennas, or in arrays of two, three or more. RHCP or LHCP polarizations, as well as matching power dividers used specifically for multi-antenna array applications, are also available from TECOM. 375 Conejo Ridge Avenue, Thousand Oaks, CA 91361-4928 Phone (805) 267-0100, Fax (805) 267-0181 www.tecom-ind.com
