Description

The goal of the activity was to design, manufacture and qualify an Engineering Qualification Model (EQM) for a circularly polarized OMT for complete K/Ka-Band (TX: 17.7-20.2GHz & RX: 27.0 – 30.0 GHz). The activity envisaged the following aspects: - Electrical, and thermomechanical analyses based on the typical requirements for this type of product. - A detailed view of the manufacturing aspects, since a large number of units is usually required for this type of element. An EQM was manufactured and tested at qualification levels (including shock vibration and PIM test), providing successful results and confirming the electrical and mechanical validity of the chosen option.
