Antenna Trainer ATC-5000 is a low cost high performance antenna training system. It is designed to be used in two distinct ways; for teaching and demonstrating common antenna 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 communication.
ATC-5000 is completely computerized antenna trainer that performs PC based automated rotation of receiving antennas at predefined angles and GUI-based polar plots of radiation patterns of each antenna. It comprises of C-Band microwave transmitter receiver and set of eight different type of antennas. ATC-5000 software provides signal level at receiver for each rotational step, azimuthal angle, polar plot of radiation pattern and beam width of each antenna.
