Quadrifilar Helix Antenna for Weather Satellite Atmospheric Research purpose provides horizon to horizon coverage.
Quadrifilar Helix Antenna uses a self facing design and is a full wave Helix for perfect RHCP/LHCP circular polarization
The Helix uses copper tubing for filar windings and the low VSWR below 1:1.5 provide perfect matching and increased antenna efficiency with peak gain of 5 dBi.
Filars are held symmetrical to the vertical axis to maintain purity of the radiation. The antenna is enclosed in a weather proof Radome with mounting suitable for a Pole-Mount.
