• Operating Frequencies: 500–6100 MHz
• Polarization Adjustment: horizontal and vertical
• Nominal Impedance: 50 Ohm
• Radome Material: FRP
• Mounting Material: stainless steel
• Color: dark green
• Standing Wave Ratio (SWR): low — one of the best indicators on the market

Description and Purpose

The DroneAnt-Plus-I antenna is designed to significantly improve radio communication between the remote and the drone in the most challenging conditions: dense urban areas, obstacles along the route, and long-distance flights. Its wide frequency range of 500–6100 MHz makes it compatible with most video and telemetry transmission systems, and polarization switching (horizontal or vertical) allows it to adapt to specific tasks and environments.

Advantages and Features

• Improved Signal Transmission Range. Increases the communication distance between the drone and the remote without significant quality loss.
• Reliability and Stability. The FRP radome and stainless steel mounting withstand impacts, temperature fluctuations, and aggressive weather conditions.
• Versatile Use. Works effectively in urban areas with many obstacles, as well as in open-space flights.
• Easy Installation. Installation does not require special tools; all necessary fasteners and an installation guide are included.
• Environmental Protection. IP67 class ensures operation in dusty and humid conditions without electronic damage.
• Polarization Adjustment. Horizontal and vertical polarization to optimize coverage and signal quality depending on the scenario.
• Optimal SWR. Low standing wave ratio reduces signal loss and enhances data transmission stability.

Materials and Housing Protection

The housing is made of durable FRP, ensuring resistance to mechanical impacts and chemical factors. Stainless steel mounting guarantees reliable fixation on the aircraft. IP67 allows the antenna to be operated in harsh weather conditions without risk of failure.

SWR and Performance Impact

A low standing wave ratio means minimal reflections and energy losses, contributing to more efficient use of transmitter power and improved communication channel quality. This positively affects the reliability of video and telemetry transmission and can reduce the need for additional amplifiers.
