COMPANY
HISTORY
Broadband Propagation designs and manufactures
a wide range of antenna products from MF to Microwave.We have been
in operation for over 12 years and entered the antenna market with
a number of original and ground breaking HF broadband antenna designs
which offered HF users compact, efficient, light-weight and durable
antennas using materials not seen before in the market.
So successful are these designs that all
Australian transceiver manufacturers including Q-MAC, BARRETT and
CODAN use and promote them as a major part of their antenna product
range.
Broadband Propagation went on to develop
(in it's own right) more products in the HF portable and back-pack
arena, again introducing new materials with vastly greater strength
and durability than existing designs. The "big three"
have also adopted these designs as their preferred antennas.
In conjunction with this work Broadband
Propagation evolved a long standing relationship with the Adelaide
University Department of Physics and Mathematical Physics and ATRAD
in their work on Atmospheric Radars (Wind Profilers), Meteor Detection
Radars and Ionospheric Sounding Radars.
This has led to us designing manufacturing
and installing very large VHF antenna arrays in places such as Scotland
(United Kingdom Met Office), China (Chinese National Space Administration)
and for NAL (National Aerospace Laboratory of Japan) other arrays
we have built are installed all over the world from the Antarctica
to Iceland.
