VertexRSI’s Air Traffic Control (ATC) and Radar Antennas provide optimum performance for SSR (Secondary Surveillance Radar) applications in the 1030 and 1090 MHz frequency range. The SSR antennas are used world wide for ground control and air traffic management governed by strict international standards.

David Bowne, TriPoint Global’s Vice President, Sales – Eastern United States, said “The performance requirements for these products require optimal design and tight control of manufacturing tolerances to achieve the gain, sidelobes and cross polarization levels required for high performance and high reliability radar systems vital to ground control and air traffic management. Both of these antennas can operate in a stand-alone configuration or be mounted on a primary radar antenna for fixed and transportable military and commercial applications.”

Each ATC or Radar antenna is fully tested to demonstrate compliance with all applicable specifications at VertexRSI’s FAA-approved test range in Kilgore, Texas. The test range is one of only two such privately held facilities in the US.

The ATC and Radar antennas are included in VertexRSI’s line of Technical Products. The Company’s Technical Products business represents the merger of two long time market leaders: the former RSI Technical Products of Sterling, Va. and the VertexRSI Antenna Products Division in Kilgore, Texas. The transfer of tooling and experience in ATC and Radar antenna products from the former plant in Sterling to the company’s state-of-the-art facilities in Kilgore allows the Company to continue to provide the high quality products for which this line has long been known.

A complete line of towers is available to complement the ATC and Radar antenna product line. Standard product designs include the DASR, TDWR, PRM, ASDE-X and ASDE-3 towers. Customized tower designs are available to fit any requirement.
