Gain, Mid Band For a given frequency band, gain is primarily a function of antenna size.
The gain of Andrew antennas is determined by either gain by comparison
or by computer integration of the measured antenna patterns.

Boresite Cross Polarization Discrimination (XPD) The difference between the peak of the co-polarized main beam and the
maximum cross-polarized signal over an angle twice the 3 dB beamwidth
of the co-polarized main beam.

Front-to-Back Ratio Denotes highest radiation relative to the main beam, at 180° ±40°, across
the band. Production antennas do not exceed rated values by more than 2
dB unless stated otherwise.

Return Loss The figure that indicates the proportion of radio waves incident upon the
antenna that are rejected as a ratio of those that are accepted.

VSWR Maximum; is the guaranteed Peak Voltage-Standing-Wave-Ratio within the

Radiation Pattern Envelope Reference (RPE) Radiation patterns define an antenna’s ability to discriminate against
unwanted signals. Under still dry conditions, production antennas will not
have any peak exceeding the current RPE by more than 3dB, maintaining
an angular accuracy of +/-1° throughout

Wind Speed, operational For VHLP(X), SHP(X), HX and USX antennas, the wind speed where the
maximum antenna deflection is 0.3 x the 3 dB beam width of the antenna.
For other antennas, it is defined as a deflection is equal to or less than 0.1
degrees.

Wind Speed, survival The maximum wind speed the antenna, including mounts and radomes,
where applicable, will withstand without permanent deformation.
Realignment may be required. This wind speed is applicable to antenna
with the specified amount of radial ice.

Axial Force (FA) Maximum forces exerted on a supporting structure as a result of wind
from the most critical direction for this parameter. The individual
maximums specified may not occur simultaneously. All forces are
referenced to the mounting pipe.

Side Force (FS) Maximum side force exerted on the mounting pipe as a result of wind from
the most critical direction for this parameter. The individual maximums
specified may not occur simultaneously. All forces are referenced to the
mounting pipe.

Twisting Moment (MT) Maximum forces exerted on a supporting structure as a result of wind
from the most critical direction for this parameter. The individual
maximums specified may not occur simultaneously. All forces are
referenced to the mounting pipe.
