TAG:5G LPDA Antenna: The Ultrawideband Solution for Global 4G/5G Convergence

RF element redefines hybrid network deployment with our industry-leading 5G LPDA antenna, extending operational bandwidth from conventional 698-2700MHz to 698-4200MHz. This single-antenna solution eliminates multi-antenna setups while covering:

  • 4G/LTE bands (698-960MHz)

  • 5G NR bands (3300-4200MHz n77/n78)

  • Legacy 2G/3G frequencies

Technical Innovations

1. Bandwidth Expansion Technology

ParameterStandard LPDARF element LPDA
Frequency Range698-2700MHz698-4200MHz
Bandwidth Ratio3.9:16:1
Average Gain8.5 dBi9.2 dBi
VSWR≤1.8:1≤1.5:1
PIM (2x20W)-150 dBc<-155 dBc

2. Tri-Impedance Dipole Architecture

  • Low-Band (698-960MHz): Tapered-arm folded dipoles

  • Mid-Band (1700-2700MHz): Multi-slot coupled dipoles

  • High-Band (3300-4200MHz): Laser-cut micro-dipoles


Key Applications

I. Telecom Infrastructure
1. 4G/5G Base Station Scanning

  • Replaces 3+ narrowband antennas

  • Operational Impact:

    • 60% tower space reduction

    • 40% faster deployment

2. Backhaul Point-to-Point Links
Philippine Island Network Case:

  • 28-element LPDA arrays @ 3.5/4.8GHz

  • Results:

  • • Throughput: +45%  
    • Latency: -32%  
    • OPEX: -$8.2k/site  

II. Electromagnetic Defense
1. Counter-Drone Systems

  • 120° interference sectors

  • Instant 2.4GHz ↔ 5.8GHz switching

  • 1 antenna replaces 2-3 conventional units

2. Spectrum Monitoring

  • 100μs band-switching speed

  • MIL-STD-461G compliant

III. Critical Environments
1. Mining Communications

  • Ex ia IIC T6 explosion-proof certification

  • 5Grms vibration resistance

  • 120+ units deployed in Chilean mines (0 failures/18mo)

2. Maritime Operations

  • Integrated GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou

  • IEC 60945 salt-spray certified

  • Triple-sealed N-connectors
