This antenna was designed for shipboard and fixed site use, where direct, simultaneous communications with satellite, ground, shipborne and airborne platforms are to be maintained. To fulfill this mission, UC-300-B1 antennas were designed to radiate a small portion of the supplied RF power with Vertical Polarization. At low elevation angles, where ground, sea and air platforms are typically located, both horizontally and vertically polarized waves are radiated to match any type of antenna. When the -B1 antenna is installed low, close to the ground or a large metal structure, the vertically polarized waves better survive earth multipath, maintaining communications at low elevation angles where other SATCOM antennas would fail.

This is an area where MEI excels, where over 27 years of know-how and experience developing original antennas make a significant difference. This difference translates into a creative solution for your product, as opposed to an ordinary, run of the mill one. MEI can create, supply and support a suitable antenna to meet client requirements in almost any housing, regardless of whether the antenna is permitted to protrude outside the housing or not. Embedded radiators are designed, developed, prototyped, verified and manufactured in-house within the spectrum of 100 kHz to 26 GHz. A very broad range of antenna structures are created, including patch, inverted F, slot, notch, horn, dipole, monopole, loop, conformalprinted, wrap-aroundband-aid, spiral, conical, miniature, naturally & forced resonant, loaded or unloaded, etc., together with their hybrid combinations. Spatially and polarization diverse radiating systems are equally supported.
