The PRA_62s is a high-precision Gaussian Polyrod Antenna (GPA) optimized for the 11-22 GHz frequency range. It is engineered to produce a collimated, planar-wave RF beam specifically for localized material characterization and high-stakes Non-Destructive Testing (NDT).

Core Engineering Specs

• Model: PRA_62s
• Frequency Range: 11 GHz – 22 GHz
• Technology: Polyrod Gaussian Beam (collimated output)
• Inspection Zone: Achievement of a highly planar wave within 1 inch from the antenna tip.
• Beam Profile: Precision-narrowed directional beam to eliminate sample over-illumination and enhance spatial resolution.
• System Performance: Delivers a dynamic range greater than 70 dB when integrated with MWI measurement systems.
• Compatibility: Universal VNA integration for seamless data acquisition.

Primary Utility

Ideal for high-frequency NDT where precise energy localization is required. It allows for the accurate extraction of dielectric properties while effectively minimizing signal scattering and sample wrap-around in complex measurement environments.
