A lightweight man-portable antenna solution providing high accuracy DF for HF, VHF, and UHF.

The TriQuad system is comprised of two antenna elements which when deployed together provide complete coverage from 2MHz to 3GHz. Alternatively, each antenna can be used separately to suit the frequency coverage required for the mission profile. The three configurations possible are:

• QuadTac (with Lightweight Tripod)
• MicroQuad
• TriQuad (seamless integration of QuadTac and MicroQuad)

This modular approach gives the end-user the capability to deploy only the equipment required at the time, whilst still maintaining the potential for full coverage if circumstances rapidly change.

QuadTac

The QuadTac antenna subsystem provides 2-channel intercept and Direction Finding capability for a RESOLVE system. Specifically designed for On-the-March operations, the antenna can operate with the array elements extended for maximum sensitivity, or closed to reduce the visual signature.

• Low visual signature – array elements can be closed and still maintain intercept and DF capability
• Rapidly deployable – lightweight, compact folding design
• Flexible – manpack, tripod or vehicle mounted
• Accurate – Built-in GPS provides accurate antenna location and system timing
• Modular - Integrates with MicroQuad antenna subsystem to form the TriQuad

MicroQuad

The MicroQuad antenna is typically used in conjunction with the QuadTac where it provides a base for the QuadTac. It can also be operated in isolation if only HF spectrum monitoring is required.

• Low visual signature
• Rapidly deployable
• Lightweight, compact folding design
• Integrated GPS antenna
