LPDA-8003 

Log Periodic Dipole Antenna

Product Overview 

The TDK LPDA-8003 Log Periodic Dipole Antenna 

is a new generation compact antenna used for 

transmitting and receiving broadband radio sig-

nals. It is especially suited for dual band communi-

cation testing where the antenna must not interfere 

with the measurement environment.  The LPDA-

8003 provides optimal performance over the wide 

operating frequency range of 800 MHz to 3 

GHz. The LPDA-8003 features reduced cross po-

larization, improved pattern symmetry, and moder-

ate power handling capability, making it an excel-

lent choice for both communications testing as well 

as the most stringent metrology applications.  

Leading-Edge Design

The LPDA-8003’s com-

pact design features a reduced boom size which 

results in excellent cross polarization rejection. The 

antenna’s patent-pending balun design provides 

improved pattern symmetry and a low VSWR. 

Applications 

Communications equipment testing 

Land mobile communication bands, GSM, 

ISM testing 

Site attenuation 

Calibration
