The ABM-6000 is a precisely tuned, linearly polarized,
mini-biconical dipole antenna, operating at the low end
of the microwave band over the frequency range of 1 to
6 GHz. It may be used as either a transmitting or receiv-
ing antenna.
The ABM-6000 was specifically designed to comply with
radiation pattern specifications detailed in CISPR 16-1-4
(section 8.2.2.1), and is intended to be used as the trans-
mit source antenna for site validations above 1 GHz for
radiated emissions test sites, such as OATS (open area
test sites), anechoic and semi-anechoic chambers.
Its lightweight, compact design makes the antenna eas-
ily portable, while its stainless steel housing and brass
elements provide durability, enabling the antenna to be
transported and used in almost any environment. The
textured, powder-coated handle section of the shaft along
with the supplied mounting clamp allow for easy mount-
ing of the antenna on any tripod or antenna.
