ETS-Lindgren 3162-02 Field Generating Horn Antenna 2.7 GHz - 3.1 GHz
ETS-Lindgren's Model 3162-02 Pyramidal Type High Gain Horn was specifically developed for the ES-XW7T-1A278- AC specification for automotive EMC components testing. This test requires that the EUT be exposed to a pulsed peak field level of 600 V/m at a distance of 100 cm from the front of the horn. Because of near field gain compression, most horns fail to meet this spec at the required test distance. The Model 3162-02 optimizes the near field behavior to overcome this problem, and produces a field level of 600 V/m with input power of less than 300 W. Technical Description The Model 3162-02 is a pyramidal horn antenna with nominal dimensions of 53.3 cm long by30.1 cm wide by 44.5 cm high. The horn aperture is 26.5 cm by 23.0 cm and has extended ground planes with chokes for better gain on each side, measuring 12.5 cm.
