Gain patterns of microwave common carrier antennas
Abstract
This paper summarizes analytical expressions which describe the off-axis radiation characteristics of 924 transmit antenna models in use within the continental United States in the 2, 4, 6, and 11 GHz common carrier microwave terrestrial radio service. Data are presented in a uniform format which permits the user to determine power gain for any antenna identified, at any off-axis azimuthal angle. The primary application of these data is for interference prediction among microwave links and between microwave links and communication satellite Earth terminals sharing a common frequency band.
