TDualScan FScan
I FScan FScan is a vertical near-field planar scanner system that is a perfect solution for antenna measurement applications where a phased array, high gain, or reflector antenna is under evaluation. The FScan system is suitable for small to medium antennas due to the slim cross section scanner structure that fits into small chambers and allows maximum travel.
I FScan System overview PIN Switch (optional) VNA Data Acquisition Workstation OFR 9800 Switch Controller (optional) PIN Switch (optional) AL-4164 Series Positioner Controller The standard system is able to collect high resolution antenna planar near-field data using standard Vector Network Analyzers. The AL-4164 controller allows the simultaneous control of up to four (4) axes. Additional units can be added when upgrading to cylindrical and/or spherical.
