 Model LP-500-2000 500-2000 MHz 9 dBi Gain 
 

MILITARY LOG PERIODIC DIPOLE ANTENNA

Design Features:The LP-500-2000 log periodic dipole antenna is designed to provide wideband directional transmission/reception of radio signals from 500 to 2000 MHz bands. The compact size of the log periodic antenna allows easy handling and specially designed mounting arrangement results in fast installation. The extra spacers are used between the support booms to improve mechanical durability of antenna. This high gain LPA provides strong performance over the entire frequency of 500-2500 MHz as the LPDA does not use loading technique to reduce the overall size of array.

Constructions: The log periodic dipole antenna is supplied complete in assembled condition. The LP-500-2000 assembled log periodic antennas outer-most dimensions are 0.65 meter (2.1 feet) long and 0.3 meter (1 foot) wide. The log periodic antenna operates at D.C. ground with low resistance discharge path for protection against lightning and for immunity to noise. Output of log periodic antenna is provided via low loss coaxial cable at the back end of the antenna boom. All the screws, nuts and bolts of log periodic dipole antenna are made of stainless steel.
