Haigh-Farr Blades are a family of low-cost antennas covering the 1.4 GHz Telemetry to 6.0 GHz Beacon Transponder frequency bands. These standard antennas have been in use for over 20 years in airborne applications, and most models are available for off-the-shelf delivery.
The Blade antennas exhibit omnidirectional coverage in the azimuth plane with a filled-in null in the elevation plane. When mounted to a typical ground plane, the antennas provide approximately +3dBi gain. Exact gain, however, is a function of the ground plane upon which the antenna is mounted.
Blade antennas are also used in stationary applications and ground-based vehicles such as trucks, tanks, race cars, motorcycles, etc.
