1.0 Introduction
The ETS-Lindgren Model 3160 Series Pyramidal Horn Antenna is a series of
pyramidal standard gain horn antennas designed specifically for utilization in
emissions and immunity testing over the frequency range of 1 GHz to 40 GHz.
The Model 3160 Series includes models 3160-01 through 3160-10.
Each Model 3160 Series antenna is linearly polarized and has medium gain,
wide half-power beamwidth (HPBW) in both the horizontal and vertical planes,
low VSWR over the recommended operating frequency range, and constant
antenna factors so that the antennas can be used without looking up tables or
charts.
The performance of the Model 3160 Series is precise and predictable through
design parameters. Both input and output are well matched to 50 and 377
respectively. Comparisons of measured versus computed gain and antenna
factors have been found to be within 0.5dB. The Model 3160 Series antennas
are considered to be the standard reference of measurements above 1 GHz, as
is the resonant dipole for measurements below 1 GHz.
Each Model 3160 Series antenna is ruggedly constructed for good
electromagnetic performance.
Each Model 3160 Series antenna comes with a standard 1/420 mount.
Horizontal and vertical polarizations are obtained by rotating the antennas from
one position on the mount to the other. The mounts have been placed so as not
to interfere with incoming electromagnetic energy. For the variety of mounting
options available for the Model 3160 Series, see Mounting Instructions on
page 20.
The Model 3160 Series may be used for either transmission or reception. The
50 ohm input impedance is well-matched for generating high electric fields with
little power reflected back to the amplifier, reducing the chance of saturation. As
a receiver, the antennas are matched to free space (377 ohms). Typical
performance data is provided beginning on page 37. Methods for radiated
emissions measurement are described on page 41.
For TEMPEST applications, all Model 3160 Series antennas, especially models
3160-03 and up, can be mounted on standard 12-, 18-, or 24-inch reflector
dishes. The resulting antenna factor is usually about 20 dB lower than that of the
antennas by themselves. However, the HPBW drops to less than 50 and the
far field distance increases drastically making near field performance less
predictable.

Introduction
2.0 Maintenance
Before performing any maintenance,
follow the safety information in the
ETS-Lindgren Product Information
Bulletin included with your shipment.
WARRANTY
When not in use, the Model 3160 Series Pyramidal Horn Antenna
should be stored on a shelf face down to keep dust out of the feed
areas.
Annual Calibration
The electromagnetic performance of the Model 3160 Series is almost exclusively
dependent on the physical dimensions of the horns. Comparisons with
computed gain and antenna factor result in differences within 1 dB. Therefore, it
is not necessary to calibrate Model 3160 Series antennas; only a mechanical
check is required to guarantee performance. However, if calibration is required,
see the Product Information Bulletin included with your shipment for information
on ETS-Lindgren calibration services.

3.0 Specifications
Electrical Specifications
MODEL 3160 SERIES
The VSWR indicated in the following table is that of the pyramidal horn
antenna and coax-to-waveguide adapter. The VSWR of the antenna by
itself is of the order of 1.1:1.
These horns require customized mounts due to their large physical size; for more
information see the Model 3160-u5 and Model 3160-u7 drawings provided in
Physical Specifications beginning on page 20.
The following sections provide the computed gain for the Model 3160-u5 and
Model 3160-u7.

The typical power requirements in Watts for the 3161-06 are shown in Table 11
Table 12 on page 53. Distance is measured from the aperture of the antenna.
The maximum continuous power that can be applied is 250 W, and the maximum
peak power is 8 kW. For example, to generate an electric field equal to 100 V/m
at a distance of 3 meters at a frequency of 6.25 GHz, the calibration antenna
-1
factor read from Table 1 is 29.9 dB(m ). The gain in dB is computed using:
g = 101.62 = 42.1
Applying this equation, we obtain:
