JFW’s 50P-2014 is a solid state variable attenuator covering the 200 to 6000 MHz frequency range. Its attenuation range is 0 to 95 dB (in 1 dB steps), and it has an impedance of 50 ohms (nominal). It's designed with USB control (via USB Mini-B connector), so it's perfect for research and development labs or other flexible test environments. Download our datasheet to learn more.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles: Growing Markets In A Changing World
By Qi3 Ltd.
UAVs became a common part of many people’s vernacular due to their sudden surge in use for military-related applications, though in those cases they’re typically referred to as drones. Unmanned aerial vehicles have numerous potential civilian applications as well though — from agricultural, forestry, and maritime studies, to border security and law enforcement use. This article discusses the growing diversity of markets for UAVs and both the challenges and opportunities they provide.

Ku-Band Pulse Microwave Power Module
dB Control’s dB-3814 microwave power module covers the 15 to 18 GHz range and is ideal for airborne synthetic aperture and multimode radar applications. It features excellent phase and amplitude stability, and very low phase noise.

Multiplexer For Radar, EW, And ELINT
API Technologies’ NF29525 multiplexer is ideal for radar, electronic warfare (EW), and electronics intelligence (ELINT) applications.

Characteristic Mode Analysis For Antenna Placement
Antenna design for high frequency communications on a small aircraft is challenging because the antennas will always be much smaller than the wavelength. However, this disadvantage can be turned into an advantage.

RF Booster Amplifier For Tactical Radio Equipment
This datasheet includes general, mechanical, and environmental specifications for AR Modular RF’s AR-55L. This RF booster amplifier is ideal for integration into tactical radio equipment and covers the 1200 to 1900 MHz frequency range.

Modeling The Installed Performance Of A SATCOM Antenna On A UAV
The installed performance of an 8 GHz SATCOM reflector antenna on a UAV platform is modeled using Delcross Savant. Full 3D far-field radiation patterns are computed and animated as the gimbaled antenna assembly is rotated through 360 degrees under a radome inside the forward UAV sensor compartment.
