400 GHz Vector Network Analyser (VNA) and antenna chamber
About
Vector Network Analyser capable of performing measurements up to 400 GHz. The VNA is natively capable of performing measurements from 10 MHz up to 67 GHz in a continuous fashion, and in a banded mode from 67 GHz up to 400 GHz: a) 67 GHz – 115 GHz, b) 110 GHz-170 GHz, c) 170 GHz – 260 GHz and d) 260 GHz – 400 GHz. Antenna chamber for measurements of antenna radiation characteristics, with a minimum frequency of operation of 20 GHz.
Description
Radio Frequency (RF) measurement capabilities of Wireless Communications Laboratory at Tyndall National Institute have been recently boosted by the acquisition of a Vector Network Analyser (VNA), with an upper frequency of operation of 400 GHz and an antenna chamber with a minimum frequency of operation of 20 GHz.
Technical specifications:
- Vector network analyser, PNA, Keysight with a combined upper frequency of operation of 400 GHz.
- Antenna chamber with a minimum operational frequency of 20 GHz. Chamber size 2.4 m x 1.2 m x 1.2 m.
Case study:
With our equipment INFRACHIP users can measure the performance of a range of RF devices and antennas operating up to sub-THz frequencies. The device is state-of-the-art and is useful to researchers and organisations working in the telecommunications field.
