The SPARTE e100 is a hybrid antenna addressing the telemetry applications in S-Band, including hypersonic test articles.
The antenna is a combination of an Electronic Beam Steering supporting any elevation from -5° up to +95° and a single-axis mechanical rotation of the patch panel providing unlimited azimuth. The patch panel’s size enables the SPARTE e100 to achieve telemetry reception performance comparable to that of a 1.2m diameter dual-axis antenna.
This is achieved with a significantly simpler mechanical design, ensuring easier maintenance throughout the antenna’s operational lifespan.
The SPARTE e100’s rapid tracking capabilities, reaching speeds of up to 60°/s in azimuth and virtually infinite in elevation, make it an ideal “lock-on” antenna.
The SPARTE 300 series antenna is a battle-tested product that has consistently delivered top-tier performance for mission-critical applications where reliable telemetry reception is paramount. This rugged antenna guarantees our customers the utmost precision, a long operational life, and straightforward maintenance.
The SPARTE 300 series opens up a world of possibilities for users, ranging from aircraft tracking and high-speed target monitoring to duplex datalinks with both receiving and transmitting capabilities.
Furthermore, the extensive and customizable input/output options empower users to operate multiple antennas in a coordinated, multi-site tracking setup. With all antennas, regardless of size, being effortlessly monitored, managed and controlled by using our TM Maestro software.
