Abstract:
The disclosed subject matter concerns an antenna which comprises a ground plane and at least a first and a second antenna element. Each antenna element comprises a feed point, a cavity, a main body, a tip and at least a first tapered portion and a second tapered portion. Each antenna element is arranged on the ground plane, where said first and second tapered portions extend along the antenna element from said tip towards the ground plane of the antenna element, and where each antenna element extends essentially perpendicularly to said ground plane along a centre axis of the antenna element. Each antenna element has at least a first leg and a second leg, where said first leg extends from said main body to the first feed point, where said feed point is located between the first leg and the ground plane, and where said second leg extends from said main body to the ground plane, and where said second leg is electrically connected to the ground plane.

Abstract:
A mounting system adapted to receive a plurality of transmitter receiver modules and each including an upper antenna part and a lower electronic components part. The lower part includes transmitter receiver module contacts on the end opposite the upper part. The mounting system includes a substrate rear panel including transmitter receiver module contact receivers on a first side and active support units on a second side. Each contact receiver is adapted to receive transmitter receiver module contacts of one receiver module. The supports are adapted to support a plurality of receiver modules. One single substrate rear panel is adapted to receive the receiver modules in a matrix. The mounting system includes a ground plane and an electric conductive sheet, and is arranged such that when the receiver modules are mounted in the mounting system, the ground plane levels with the receiver modules transition from the upper to the lower part.

The invention relates to a surface vehicle 1 comprising a keel-mast arrangement 10 where at least one keel 14 is arranged to at least one mast 13 to form the keel-mast arrangement 10 and that the keel-mast arrangement 10 is movabiy arranged to a multihull structure 20 where the keel-mast arrangement 10 is arranged with a rotating joint 15 to the multihull structure 20, where the multi hull structure have at least one opening 25, 25' for the keel- mast arrangement 10 to pass through, so that the multihull structure 20 and the keel-mast arrangement 10 are freely rotatable around an axis formed by a bow-stern axis A. The invention further relates to a method to provide a capsize safe surface vehicle comprising a multihull structure 20 and a keel-mast arrangement 10 where at least one keel 14 is arranged to at least one mast 13 to form the keel-mast arrangement 10 where the keel-mast arrangement 10 is rotatable arranged to the multihull structure 20 so that the multihull structure 20 could freely rotate around the bow-stern axis A to keep the mast 13 substantially above the surface and the keel 14 substantially below the surface when the surface vehicle is in use.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for controlling a satellite tracking antenna comprising an azimuth drive means configured to impart an azimuthal rotational motion to the antenna about an azimuth axis, an elevation axis drive means configured to impart a rotational motion to the antenna about an elevation axis orthogonal to the azimuth axis control means for controlling the operation of the azimuth axis drive means and of the elevation axis drive means, wherein a tilt axis drive means is configured to impart a rotational motion to the antenna about a tilt axis, the tilt axis being connected to the elevation axis in such a way that the rotational freedom of motion of the antenna about the tilt axis is dependent on the elevation angle such that: at an elevation angle of 0° the rotational freedom of motion of the antenna about the tilt axis corresponds to the azimuthal rotational motion; at an increasing elevation angle the rotational freedom of motion about the antenna successively transcends into a roll rotation; and at an elevation angle of 90° the rotational freedom of motion of the antenna about the tilt axis corresponds to a roll rotation, control means being provided for controlling the tilt axis drive means. The invention further relates to a method for controlling a satellite tracking antenna, and a vehicle comprising said device.
