30m Composite Sandwich Radomes for Ground Station Antennas

Description

The 30m composite sandwich radome is a truncated spherical structure designed to shield terrestrial communication systems—including satellite ground stations, radar, and associated equipment—from environmental exposure while permitting reliable electromagnetic wave transmission, namely radio-frequency (RF) waves.

Engineered for durability, the radome protects against all weather-related effects, including water ingress, dust, debris, wind, and extreme conditions such as UV exposure, snow, and ice while preserving RF signal transmission efficiency, obscuring antenna look-angles, and extending the operational life of the enclosed communications system.

The 30m composite sandwich radome operates passively, requiring no external power, airflow systems, or electronic components. Its construction features a fiberglass-foam core layered with interlocking panels to form a rigid, sandwich-like shell designed to withstand up to Category 5 cyclones.

The 30m composite sandwich radome can be tailored to almost any specification, including frequency ranges from UHF to V-Band (500 kHz to 50 GHz), and is fully customizable in diameter, hydrophobic surface, colour, shape, truncation, and frequency response to meet specific communication system requirements.

Av-Comm can design, engineer, and certify your radome to meet Australian and New Zealand standards, including applicable wind load ratings and civil, electrical and structural engineering requirements to ensure compliance, reliability, and long-term performance.
