is an integrated active antenna for wireless communications. It incorporates a
transmission amplifier, Remote Controlled Gain, transmission band filter and the respective receive
chain: band filter, and Gain controlled LNA.
The Tx amplifier is linear. The Rx amplifier has an exceptional linear dynamic range. The integral unit
contains its own power conditioner and a monitoring and control circuit that communicates with the
RAC and from there on through the Wireless Modem to any remote PC (The Wireless Modem feature
is an option) . The whole unit is sealed and built as a plug-in replaceable unit. The design and
production techniques offer low price and high reliability.
