Trackwise manufactures antenna PCBs for a wide range of threat detection devices.

Electronic device detectors are capable of detecting electronic devices whether they are a transmitting or hardwired, regardless if they are switched on or off. In order to optimise system performance and due to the critical nature of the system performance, a highly precise and ‘clean’ antenna PCB is required.

Sinuous antennas are especially suited to the Early Warning (EW) environment such as Electronic Support Measures (ESM) and Radar Warning Receivers (RWR) or more generally as Threat Warning Antennas:

Trackwise support Q-par Angus for A400 antennas

Q-par Angus has designed and produced a range of special microwave antennas for the A400 transport plane for protection against missile attack.

Jenny Holiday Director of Q-par Angus said “The antennas have very accurate PCB structures for the internal circuits and for the antenna elements themselves. These have to be made to very high levels of accuracy and must be consistent from one antenna to another. This is why Trackwise was chosen to help us develop and produce these parts. The antenna performance is superior to competitors and we are finding other markets for these in surveillance and direction finding applications.”
