PCB0049 Bald Eagle Antenna

PCB0049 Bald Eagle Antenna

This functional 10 cm tall bald eagle theme antenna works from 1300 MHz to 18 GHz. It does not have very broadband return loss despite its complex top shape and multiple branched feathers. The modest return loss performance does mean radiation efficiency is also modest across the operating range. It has peak gain (meaning it radiates in some direction) that is fairly broadband, covering the entire 14:1 test frequency test range, which is noteworthy !

A full Excel spreadsheet 3D gain results report can be downloaded HERE. This extensive test program covers full 3D spherical gain patterns at 1671 stepped frequencies from 1300 MHz to 18 GHz in 10 MHz steps. The test report details higher level performance data, such as: Forward Gain, Peak Gain, Radiation Efficiency, and VSWR/Return-Loss vs Frequency.

We can test your antenna project too! We have a full range of testing services listed HERE 

We hope you enjoy your sample antenna. We do not offer antenna design services here so that we may focus customer design confidentiality. These “biz card” antennas are just for fun, and they are not for sale.
