Directivity patterns for all models include a beamwidth in the E and H planes from 23 deg. at 40 GHz to 34 deg. at 2.6 GHz. Sidelobes in the H plane are more than 20 dB down and first sidelobes in the E plan are 13 dB down and second sidelobes are 18 dB down. Gain at mid-frequency is 16.5 dBi +/-1.5 dB over the operating bandwidth. VSWR of all models is 1.15:1 or less, and weight ranges from 6 lb. for the 2.6 to 3.95 GHz model to 4.5 g for the 18 to 40 GHz model.
