Cobham Antenna Systems has expanded its range of wideband omnidirectional antennas for EW applications. Many new options are available with examples including:
- OA-0.4-6.0V/2090: A wideband discone antenna covering 0.38 to 6.00 GHz capable of handling 100 W CW. This antenna is very rugged, low profile with a built in ground plane making it suitable for multiple applications, especially for ground to air coverage.
- OA2-1.76-6.0V/2406: A wideband rugged antenna covering 1.76 to 6.00 GHz and capable of handling 50 W CW. This centre-fed antenna covers L, S and C bands within a single unit. The antenna does not require a ground-plane and peak gain is on the horizon across the frequency range.
- OA-0.03-0.50V/2425: A wideband rugged vehicle spring-mounted whip antenna covering 30 to 512 MHz and capable of power handling of up to 200 W CW. This rugged, ground-plane dependant, antenna covers VHF and UHF frequencies within a single unit.
The full range of wideband omni antennas includes but is not limited to: manpack, body-worn, vehicle mount, high power, UAV and ground robot antennas. Cobham Antenna Systems also has complementary range of directional antennas covering 300 MHz to 27 GHz, which are used for a number of EW and surveillance applications.
