High-Speed X-Band Channel Antenna

The X-band antenna, an important part of the payload, functions as a high-speed data dump channel transmitter, emitting a signal with a specific directional pattern and gain.

Product Details:
• High-Speed Data Dump: Engineered for high-speed data transmission within the X-band frequency range.
• Passive Antenna: A passive antenna design that operates without the need for external power.
• Versatile Connector Configuration: Features three high-frequency connectors, allowing for both in-phase radiation from each channel and phased operation on individual channels (current version supports in-phase use).
• Directional Emission: Emits signals with a directional pattern for optimized communication.

Key Technical Features:

1. Frequency Range: Designed for X-band frequencies, ranging from 7.9 to 8.4 GHz.
2. Gain Range: Offers a gain range from 6 to 11 dBc for efficient signal transmission.
