Beschreibung: The HELI-21 is part of a series of mini HELI antennas. These antennas are only small compared to their larger brothers, the HELI-3, HELI-4 & HELI-8. HELI-8, but offer medium to high gain, making these antennas ideal for mine tunnels where IoT/M2M connectivity is deployed, and they can also be used for tunnel coverage. The HELI-21 is a dual-band Wi-Fi antenna for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz that radiates in one direction (i.e., unidirectional). This makes it ideal for covering both Wi-Fi bands in mining and other tunnels. These antennas are typically used for in-tunnel IoT deployments to include telemetry and mine automation. These antennas are available with both left-circular (LHC) and right-circular (RHC) polarized antenna elements to provide optimal decorrelation within a MIMO deployment when using the BRKT-45, resulting in optimal performance. The decorrelation results from the polarization difference and spatial diversity between the two antenna elements, which improves MIMO performance and RF reliability in a mining tunnel. The dual-band Wi-Fi link propagates around tunnel curves in a non-line-of-sight scenario, providing immunity to many Wi-Fi signal interfering objects such as trains and drilling machines that appear to obscure the tunnel.
