Pharad is a customer focused company carrying out innovative research, development, and manufacturing in the areas of highly efficient, electrically small antenna technologies and microwave photonic technologies for primarily government and commercial customers. Pharad’s antenna development efforts have been focused on difficult to engineer antennas for confined operational environments and very broadband applications. Another division of Pharad develops and manufactures products for RF over Fiber systems that support the high performance fiber optic transport of RF signals from 3 MHz to 40 GHz.
UAV LIGHT WEIGHT BLADE ANTENNA
Pharad’s UAV blade antennas are the smallest, lightest weight, highest performance UAV antennas on the market, weighing as little as 18 grams. These antennas provide broadband performance from UHF to C-band.
Photonic Transciever
Pharad offers a comprehensive family of optimized performance RF photonic transceivers (PXR) for high dynamic range and low loss RF signal over optical fiber transport. The transceivers are packaged in 19″ rack mountable enclosures and provide electrical-to-optical (E/O) and O/E conversion of wideband RF signals over operating bandwidths covering 3 MHz to 50 GHz.
