LPDA-8003
Log Periodic Dipole Antenna
Product Overview
The TDK RF Solutions LPDA-8003 Log Periodic
Dipole Antenna is a new generation compact
antenna used for transmitting and receiving
broadband radio signals. It is especially suited for
dual band communication testing where the
antenna must not interfere with the measurement
environment. The LPDA-8003 provides optimal
performance over the wide operating frequency
range of 800 MHz to 3 GHz. The LPDA-8003
features reduced cross polarization, improved
pattern symmetry, and moderate power handling
capability, making it an excellent choice for both
communications testing as well as the most
stringent metrology applications.
Leading-Edge Design
The LPDA-8003鈥檚 com-
pact design features a reduced boom size which
results in excellent cross polarization rejection. The
antenna鈥檚 patent-pending balun design provides
improved pattern symmetry and a low VSWR.
The TDK RF Solutions LPDA-8003 Log Periodic
Dipole Antenna features an improved design
offering superior performance over the ultra-
wide frequency range of 800 MHz to 3 GHz.
