Overview
The Amplifier Research ATP10K100M (previously labled as AT 5000) is a broadband, high power RF Field Generator. The unit is capable of generating intense fields in a large volume over a wide frequency range. The AR AT 5000 is a balanced parallel conductor transmission line that is 2.4 meters long and 1.0 meter wide. It has been designed to match free space impedance of 377 ohms, which results in extremely efficient production of RF fields. Twin conductor transmission lines produce both E (electric) and H (magnetic) fields (see Figure 1). Matching transformer and load resistors are built in and provide excellent VSWR characteristics over a frequency range of 10 kHz to 100 MHz. To achieve maximum flexibility in use the ATP10K100M can be rotated and the height adjusted to accommodate the unit under test. The unit is also mounted on a stand equipped with casters for maximum mobility. Items small enough to fit between the elements can be placed on a pedestal or table and the ATP10K100M adjusted to surround them. For larger items, the height and angle of the radiating elements can be changed for maximum field strength.
