Tab. 3.2 – Ku band Antennas characteristics
3.2.2 X band system antennas
The X band IBIS-L system is provided with two identical antennas operating in vertical
polarisation and characterised by a maximum gain of 21dBi. The amplitude characteristics
of the antenna main lobe at -3 dB and -10 dB are provided in Tab. 3.3 and its vertical and
horizontal patterns are shown in Fig. 3.13 and Fig. 3.14. For further details see appendix
B.1 .
