Phased Array Antenna Training System PAT-5000 is a low cost high performance antenna training system. It is designed to be used in Lab environment for teaching and demonstrating linear and planner antenna array configurations at all levels of study especially for Technical Colleges and Engineering Universities for undergraduate and graduate courses., It is also used as a design tool for those engaged in research and development of projects in the field of antennas.
PAT-5000 is completely computerized antenna array system that performs PC based automated rotation of receiving antennas at predefined angles and GUI-based polar plots of radiation patterns of each antenna. PAT-5000 comprises of C-Band microwave transmitter receiver and set of eight element Horn antennas. PAT-5000 software provides signal level at receiver for each rotational step, azimuth angle, polar plot of radiation pattern and beam width of each antenna.
