Blade Antennas
Haigh-Farr offers a family of low-cost Blade antennas covering frequencies from 300 MHz to 8 GHz. These antennas have been in use for over 30 years in airborne applications, and most models are available for off-the-shelf delivery.
Haigh-Farr also offers a series of broadband blade antennas covering a variety of frequency ranges.
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.
With over 50 years experience designing and producing antennas, Haigh-Farr may already have a solution to meet your needs. To request additional datasheets, please email datasheets@haigh-farr.com.
