Introduction
Sutron’s Geo Antenna is a rugged yet simple antenna to use for satellite communications. This
antenna is ideally designed for Data Collection Platform (DCS) usage on the Environmental
satellites around the world including GOES, METEOSAT, HIMAWARI and FENYUN and others. The
antenna has a broad beamwidth pattern minimizing the pointing requirements and simplifying
installation for the customer. The compact shape will offer advantages in applications where
typical Yagi antennas will be damaged from wildlife or foliage etc.
