ETS-Lindgren 3184 Overview
ETS-Lindgren's 3184 Broadband Mini-Bicon Antenna is a radome-protected, broadband antenna with a frequency range of 1 GHz to 18 GHz. Its omnidirectional pattern and broadband frequency range make it ideal for surveying or spectrum monitoring, when used with a portable spectrum analyzer.
A weatherizing kit is standard on the model 3184 for prolonged outdoor monitoring.

Because of its small size, the antenna can also be used for amplifier harmonic measurements per the IEC 61000-4-3 Radiated Immunity Test.
Frequency Range
ETS-Lindgren's 3184 is designed to have the lowest possible VSWR across its range of operation. The antenna exhibits an average 2: 1 VSWR.
Radiation Pattern
The radiation pattern of the ETS-Lindgren's 3184 is omnidirectional in the H-plane. This means the antenna can receive signals from every direction around its axis.
Spectrum Monitoring
The ETS-Lindgren's 3184 can be used for EM Field surveying and spectrum monitoring. The low weight design allows use as a field surveying tool, in conjunction with a portable spectrum analyzer.
