Key highlights

The IQ spacecom X-Band High Gain Patch Antenna, operating in the 8000 MHz - 8450 MHz range, is designed for pico and nano satellite applications to realize simultaneous satelliteto-ground radio links.

With circular polarization, the antenna provides a robust solution regarding the steering accuracy to the ground station antenna and in case of a randomly rotation of wave polarization plane by refracts of the ionosphere.

As an RF connector, a robust SMA female connector (manufactured by RADIALL) is used. A proper mounting of the antenna can be provided by 6 screws. The
antenna backside shall be grounded properly to the satellite chassis.

As dielectric, ROGERS™ laminate for space applications is used. Patches and conductors are Cu with NiAu surface finish.
