Product description
The ESPARGOS One Aperture Kit 8×4 is the largest ready-made antenna array in the ESPARGOS One family. Four ESPARGOS One modules are combined into a phase-coherent 8×4 aperture with a total of 32 dual-polarized antenna elements.
The large λ/2-spaced aperture provides particularly fine spatial resolution for angle-of-arrival estimation, MUSIC spatial spectrum analysis and other array signal-processing techniques. Clock and phase references are distributed internally; the modules are supplied pre-mounted, pre-configured and synchronized. Apart from Ethernet connections, no additional synchronization wiring is required.
