UWB0618-1000-SP: Slant Polarization, Wideband Omni Antenna (6 – 18 GHz, Slant Polarization)
The UWB0618-1000-SP is a high-performance, wideband omnidirectional antenna engineered for demanding RF intelligence, communications and spectrum-monitoring platforms. Covering the full 6 GHz to 18 GHz band, this version offers slant-/-+45° linear polarization, delivering enhanced orientation flexibility and polarization-matching advantages in multi-platform and multi-polarization environments.
Key Features & Benefits
Expansive Frequency Coverage: Operates seamlessly across the 6 GHz to 18 GHz band, enabling unified platform integration across C-, X-, Ku-band frequency regimes. Signal Antenna+1
Omnidirectional Radiation Pattern: 360° horizontal (H-plane) coverage ensures uniform azimuthal reception/transmission, while the elevation (E-plane) beamwidth is optimized for platform mounting angles. Signal Antenna+1
Slant ±45° Polarization Option: Specifically configured for slant-polarization, enabling better polarization-alignment flexibility, reduced polarization mismatch losses and improved platform interoperability in mixed-polarization RF environments.
Compact, Rugged Form-Factor: The small footprint supports both airborne and ground-mobile installations, and is suitable for indoor/outdoor use with stable RF performance. Signal Antenna+1
Optimized RF Performance: Typical gain ranges from about +1 dBi to +4 dBi across band, VSWR up to 2.5:1 (max) in standard version — slant-polar version maintains equivalent RF standards unless otherwise specified. Signal Antenna
Made in the USA: Designed and built in the USA (CAGE: 0BD62) to the quality standards you expect. Signal Antenna
Typical Applications
Tactical datalink and comms for airborne, ground or maritime platforms
SIGINT, ELINT and spectrum-monitoring systems where polarization agility is a plus
