The TW4421 features a novel 25mm dual feed wideband patch element that provides a more linear carrier phase response by virtue of the axial ratio that is greatly improved across the full frequency bandwidth. It provides truly circular response over its entire bandwidth thereby producing superior multipath signal rejection. It is especially suitable for high accuracy applications, and also offers high out of band signal rejection. The two feeds from the patch element are summed in a 90° Hybrid then input to a first stage Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), followed by a mid-section SAW and a second low noise gain stage. The TW4421 is the smallest dual feed, high performance antenna available. It is housed in a compact IP67 magnetic or adhesive mount enclosure. It is available with a wide range of cable and connector options. The antenna can be ordered without the magnet. In such cases, the magnet is replaced with a plastic plug to provide a smooth under surface, with the option of ordering it with or without 1.1 mm doublesided VHB tape on the bottom. ## **Applications** - Cost Sensitive Mission Critical Positioning - Military & Security - Covert surveillance - Fleet Management & Asset Tracking ## **Features** - Dual feed patch element - 40% wider bandwidth, small footprint - Axial ratio: 2.5 dB Max.
