Rostec's holding company, Roselectronica, has announced the creation of a domestic DVB-T2 antenna for marine vessels, as well as stationary coastal infrastructure facilities. Mass production is scheduled to begin before the end of 2023.
The antenna was created by engineers at the Neptune Research Institute (part of Roselectronica). The development is based on a discone antenna and a transistor low-noise amplifier. The new product has surpassed foreign counterparts in terms of broadband, wind resistance, and material consumption.
«The use of modern computer technologies for electrodynamic modeling in the design of microwave devices has allowed our engineers to create a domestic television antenna for marine applications that is not inferior to foreign models. The relevance of the development is due to Western sanctions, the lack of domestic analogues, and is aimed at ensuring the technological sovereignty of our country,» said Sergey Pomazunov, acting General Director of the Neptune Research Institute.
