Description
The AntennaLab is a unique system designed to be used in two distinct ways; it can be used for teaching and demonstrating common antenna configurations at all levels of study, and as a design tool by those engaged in research and development.
The system operates in conjunction with a PC via a USB interface and is supported by Discovery Interactive Software and NECWIN simulation software. The equipment comprises two towers, one being a low power transmitter, controlled by a frequency synthesizer. The second contains a frequency synthesiser controlled receiver. The antenna to be investigated is mounted on top of the transmitter tower.
