Trihedral Corner Reflectors Enhance Testing

Pasternack, an Infinite Electronics brand and a leading provider of RF, microwave and mmWave products, has launched its new trihedral corner reflectors. These reflectors have three flat surfaces meeting at right angles to form a corner structure. This innovative design ensures the efficient reflection of incoming signals back toward the source, making them indispensable in various testing and measurement scenarios. These trihedral reflectors are poised to revolutionize radar and antenna testing applications by optimizing signal reflection and measurement accuracy.

One of the primary applications of Pasternack’s trihedral corner reflectors is radar cross-section (RCS) measurements. Placed strategically within a controlled environment, these reflectors simulate radar echoes, enabling precise assessment and calibration of radar systems. Moreover, they find extensive use in antenna testing, helping evaluate and optimize antenna performance.

Key features of the corner reflectors include their compact size, ranging from 1.4 to 13 in., which caters to different radar target sizes. With a high RCS, these reflectors ensure optimal signal reflectivity for accurate measurements. Their rugged configuration, complemented by a durable gray powder-coat finish, allows them to withstand diverse environmental conditions.

Operating in the 10 to 100 GHz frequency range, these reflectors are suitable for a wide array of applications. Precision machined and tripod mountable, they offer convenient and secure mounting options for seamless integration into testing setups.

Pasternack’s new trihedral corner reflectors are in stock and available for same-day shipping.
