Strong signals: Improve antenna performance in high-frequency military applications with radome innovations - Story
September 13, 2021By Rick Johnson, Laird R&F Products and Eric Trantina, Laird Performance Materials
High-quality antenna performance protects lives and military assets. However, as defense and aerospace communications systems operate at higher frequencies, optimizing signal quality while also protecting antennas from harsh environmental conditions becomes more difficult. The key to addressing these challenges lies in the radomes that surround and shield antennas. Lowering the dielectric constant of the radome while also making the surround rugged requires a mix of in-depth knowledge of high-frequency communications systems, sophisticated modeling, materials science expertise, and rigorous testing.
