Kathrein Broadcast Antennas

Kathrein is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of professional broadcast antenna


systems, including a full range of transmitting antennas for FM, TV, MMDS, DAB and
DVB broadcasting.

KATHREIN-Werke KG was founded in 1919 in Rosenheim, Germany, to produce


antennas and lightning protection equipment.

Since 1955 Kathrein has been supplying professional antenna systems of all sizes to
broadcasters in every part of the world, from Canada to China and from Norway to South
Africa.

Right from the start Kathrein has maintained a high level of engineering capability.
Today there is a team of antenna and mechanical engineers dealing exclusively with
broadcast transmitting antennas.
This highly qualified engineering team is responsible for:

– Design of components (antennas, power splitters, etc.).

– Design and optimization of complete antenna systems.

– Installation and testing of antenna systems.

– Project management.

Kathrein can provide turn-key installations in cooperation with other contractors or using
the customer’s installation personnel.

Customers are welcome to take advantage of the technical expertise available from
Kathrein and to discuss their specific requirements. If your needs cannot be met with
our standard components we are prepared to develop special solutions for you.

Kathrein’s quality management system is certified in accordance with ISO 9001, which
includes not only all manufacturing operations, but also design processes.

“Quality leads the way”


As the world’s oldest and largest antenna manufacturer, we live up to our claim “Quality
leads the way” on a daily basis. One of the fundamental principles is to always be on the
lookout for the best solution for our customer.

Our quality assurance system and our environmental management system apply to the
entire company and are certified by TÜV according to EN ISO 9001 and EN ISO 14001.

Please note:
As a result of more stringent legal regulations and judgements regarding product
liability, we are obliged to point out certain risks that may arise when products are
used under extraordinary operating conditions.

The mechanical design is based on the environmental conditions as stipulated in


ETS 300 019-1-4, which include the static mechanical load imposed on an antenna by
wind at maximum velocity.

Extraordinary operating conditions, such as heavy icing or exceptional dynamic stress


(e.g. strain caused by oscillating support structures), may result in the breakage of an
antenna or even cause it to fall to the ground.

These facts must be considered during the site planning process.

The maximum wind velocities listed should be understood in the sense of working values
according to DIN and EN standards. These values include a safety factor below the
ultimate limit state (elastic limit or permanent deformation). For these wind velocities we
guarantee the mechanical safety and the electrical integrity of our antennas.

Relay Receiving Antennas for
TV and FM Broadcasting

Receiving antenna systems with high side-lobe


suppression and notches for the suppression
of interference can significantly improve the
signal quality of the relay receiving systems.

Due to ever-increasing transmitter density, relay


receiving systems can suffer difficulties due to
co-channel or adjacent channel interference. In
mountainous regions additional interference may be
caused by reflected signals that arrive delayed.

In order to suppress such interference, several


individual antennas can be combined. Optimization of
both the mechanical array and the electrical feeder
system results in notches in the direction of the
disturbance. Array patterns with notches in two different
directions can also be produced to suppress inter-
ference coming from a variety of sources.

To solve interference problems Kathrein offers


receiving antennas with high side-lobe suppression
for all frequency ranges.

16°

Kathrein’s log.-per. antennas have been specially


10
developed for such purposes. For example over the whole
TV Band III range they achieve a side-lobe suppression

Horizontal radiation pattern antennas is that their excellent radiation characteristics

Side-lobe suppression: > 30 dB

If high quality individual antennas are used, array patterns of antenna arrays for all VHF and TV trans-
patterns with particularly high side-lobe suppression can mitting ranges (the side-lobes were enlarged by a

Measuring Links

Devices for non-mechanical opening


of cables for measurement purposes

Applications

Measuring links are devices that are connected into RF


cable runs. Thus it is possible to open the cable run in an
electrical (non-mechanical) way, allowing to measure into
the cable in both directions.
When closed (in its operating condition), the measuring
link is a completely homogeneous, uniform section of the
transmission line and does not affect the cut-off frequency
of the transmission line system.

Measuring Heads

To permit cable measurements to be performed,


3 measuring heads are available to each size of
measuring links:
1. A measuring head allowing measurements to be taken
in one of both directions with the cable section not
measured being short-circuited.
Connectors: 7-16 or N female.
2. A measuring head with 2 test connectors allows to
measure in both cable directions.
Connectors: 7-16 or N female.
3. A measurement head for cases where the measuring
link is used for providing an emergency cable
connection. Measuring heads of this type can be used
to couple out the full incoming RF energy.

Design Features Measuring link in a cable run

The measuring links are completely watertight and


weatherproof. They are manufactured of red brass
and are therefore resistant to corrosive environments
of any nature.
The measuring links are available in versions with
cable connections from 6 1/8″ to 1 5/8″ EIA-flange or
connectors 13-30 and 7-16.

Technical details are available upon request.

Coaxial Cables and Accessories

A wide variety of coaxial cables, connectors,


cable clamps, earthing kits, hoisting sockets
and other accessories are available for main
and branch feeders.

All components are of broadband type.

The minimum size of coaxial components


is determined by the power handling
requirements and environmental conditions.

Oversized coaxial cables are often used to


reduce cable losses.

Coaxial cables

The power handling capacity and the attenuation vary greatly with the frequency. The
cables are semi-flexible due to the use of corrugated copper tubes as outer conductors.
The inner conductor is centered using a polyethylene helix or polyethylene foam.

Air dielectric cables are available in following dimensions:


3/8″ 5/8″ 7/8″ 1 1/8″ 1 5/8″ 2 1/4″ 3″ 3 1/8″ 4″ 4 1/8″ 5″ 6 1/8″

Multi-panel Array

If the cross section of the mast or tower is more


than one wavelength it is impossible to obtain
a satisfactory omni-directional horizontal radiation
pattern using three or four panels per bay.
However, an omni pattern can be achieved by
increasing the number of panels per bay.
The horizontal patterns of these “multi-panel”
arrays will vary with frequency, but they can be
designed for excellent omni performance over
limited bandwidths.
Multi-panel arrays are available with horizontal or
vertical polarization.

Special Antenna Systems Inside


Self-supporting GRP Towers

A large-diameter GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic)


pipe can be utilized to substitute a metal support
structure and enclose an antenna system.
The GRP pipe is transparent to RF energy and it
allows the antenna engineer to use an optimized
antenna design with a small cross-section at the
center of the pipe. Antenna elements may be
dipoles or turnstiles.
The GRP pipe also provides excellent protection
against severe environmental conditions such as
rain, ice, snow, wind and corrosive agents and it
allows access for inspections and maintenance
at any time.
Horizontally and vertically polarized systems can
be supplied. Examples for Radiation Patterns

Polarization

The polarization is defined as the direction of


the electrical vector, in practice the plane of the
dipoles.
The electric field of an antenna system can be
split into a horizontal and a vertical component.
If there is only one component, the polarization
is pure horizontal or vertical (plane polarized).
If there are two components which are not in
phase, the polarization is elliptical.
For slant polarization both must exist and they
must be in phase.
When an antenna produces vertically and
horizontally polarized fields with equal amplitude
and with a phase difference of exactly 90 degrees,
the resulting signal is circularly polarized.

Power Rating of Components

Generally, the power rating of components refers


to the maximum CW power (or mean power) level
that can be applied to the input.
The maximum mean power output of a TV
transmitter occurs during transmission of a black
picture and it is typically equal to 70 % of the
peak sync power level.

Split Antenna Systems

An antenna system can usually be divided into


upper and lower halves which can be operated
separately.
This arrangement allows the use of one half
for broadcast operations while the other half is
available for painting or maintenance or other
work that must be performed in close proximity
to the antenna.

The signal level will be reduced by 6 dB if one half


of the antenna is fed with one half of the normal
transmitter power. If the full transmitter power is
available, the use of one half of the antenna will
reduce the signal level by only 3 dB.

It will be necessary to climb the mast or tower


to perform antenna switching unless a coax patch
panel is installed at the transmitter output with
two main feeders up to the antenna inputs.
