PMR & Critical Communications
65 Years of Experience
Panorama Antennas, a family business now in its third generation, is a leading designer and manufacturer of antennas for radio
communication. Established in London in 1947, Panorama started life as a company manufacturing consumer products. In 1952,
buoyed by huge demand for TVs in the UK, Panorama began manufacturing components for televisions, including antennas.
With the transistor radio trend of the 1960s, Panorama’s expert knowledge of television antennas was put to the manufacture of
communication antennas for radio.
Throughout the 70s and 80s Panorama evolved to become the first specialised communication antenna manufacturer in the UK,
developing a range of cellular antennas to coincide with the launch of the mobile phone network in Britain. In 1990, Panorama filed a
patent application for the first ever solid state coupling circuit, revolutionising cellular glass mount antenna technology and creating
a new benchmark for quality in the production of components. As the cellular telecommunications industry has grown worldwide,
so has Panorama.
Today Panorama is a producer of antennas for the world’s leading communication companies. While Panorama has grown to include
8 international offices, 2 subsidiaries, and over 70 staff; manufacturing, design and development are retained in London less than
a mile from the original factory. Our network of international sales representatives means that all customers get the attention and
advice they require, providing local support on global scale.
The First Choice for Public Safety Antennas
Panorama Antennas are the product of choice for the vast majority of the UK police forces. We currently provide more than 70% of
all antennas used by the British police. We are also the primary antenna supplier for the British Fire and Ambulance Airwave system.
Our TETRA antennas are extensively used by police forces across the whole of Europe and the world.

Training
Training sessions can help organisations get antenna installations right the first time,
thereby reducing the costs that might be incurred replacing poorly installed units.
Why is training important?
Ineffective antennas can cause system drop out, noise and poor data transmission
rates. Without test facilities it is difficult for the user to know if a problem is due to
poor installation, a network fault, or if the antenna itself is to blame.
The antenna is a vital component which affects the quality of the whole communication
system. As a vehicle travels between transmission sites it relies on its mobile antenna
to link up with the closest base station. Our training explains why efficient electrical
design and effective installation are essential to make the most of the available
coverage.
Who should attend?
‘Introduction to mobile antennas’ is perfect training for anyone working with,
or supplying, communications equipment. This training session aims to increase
customer satisfaction by improving the way that antennas are selected and installed.
Individuals who could benefit most by attending include buyers, installers, distributors
and retailers of mobile communications equipment.
What does training involve?
After the training session you should be able to:
Understand basic antenna theory.
Know how to select the best antenna for the application.
Define antenna performance.
Understand the correct installation and test processes.
Want training for your team?
If you would like to come to one of our open training sessions or would prefer us to
provide a bespoke training session for your team, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Bespoke Design Service
Panorama Antennas are renowned for our ability to design antennas to meet customers’ specific needs. This could involve
modifying an existing product to improve bandwidth, cable length, connector configuration, or it might require a brand
new design.
Custom Design To Your Specification
We closely consult with the customer throughout the design and manufacturing process to come up with a product that
matches requirements every time.
The antenna will be tested so that it works perfectly in the environment that it is designed for.
Tuned To Your Frequency
Panorama can tune most UHF & VHF antennas to a specific band. If you don’t see the exact frequency you need in our
product catalogue, you only need ask to see if it can be tuned to meet your requirements.
Don’t Forget The Cable
While many people may not realise it, the RF cable is almost as important as the antenna it is attached to. Panorama can
provide many different types of cable to suit your requirement and maximise antenna performance.

Testing & Facilities
Panorama’s testing and measurement facilities represent the cutting edge of antenna
design capability. Our communication antenna designs are validated before manufacture
using accurate and repeatable tests and measurements. This specialist design and
development process builds quality and reliability into all Panorama’s products. The key
components of our measurement system are:
The Anechoic Chamber
This creates a 1.2m spherical ‘quiet zone’ in which the performance characteristics of
antenna assemblies can be measured at frequencies up to 35GHz, free from physical or
electrical conditions that would otherwise interfere with the measurements.
Network Analysers
Network Analysers measure antennas using a wide range of parameters including
antenna impedance, relative field strength and insertion loss. Results can be displayed in
various formats including Smith Chart, VSWR and return loss.
Turntable & Positioning Controller
The turntable enables the assessment of the directivity of an antenna in both the ‘E’ and
‘H’ planes. This special equipment is constructed to rotate through 360 degrees (in 1
degree increments), with minimal RF reflection or interference.
Antenna Measurement Software
This enables computer control of the Network Analyser and Positioning Controller/
Turntable. Data obtained from controlled measurements is automatically displayed
on a monitor as VSWR and polar radiation patterns which can be printed or shared on
Panorama’s computer network.
Vehicle Ground Plane Simulation
This can be used in the centre of the anechoic chamber to simulate as closely as possible,
a typical modern car roof and windscreen (front and rear).
GPS Satellite Recognition
GPS Antennas rely on continuous communication with the GPS satellites. The GPS Satellite
Recognition software enables Panorama to identify each satellite that is being picked up
by the GPS antenna. This helps our developers to see how our antennas perform in a real
world environment.
CST Microwave Studio
Panorama uses leading RF modelling software to design, validate & measure antenna
forms.

Compact, flexible 4M/2M/TETRA BOS whip
4M/2M/TETRA triplexer
The GPSB1-BOSTC-KIT is an extremely capable and complete
antenna system designed for TETRA/BOS networks.
Combining a multifunction GPSB1 sharkfin style antenna base
with a flexible ‘sportflex’ style 4M/2M/TETRA combination
whip and triplexer, the GPSB1-BOSTC-KIT offers a full suite of
functionality in a single package.
The heavy duty GPSB antenna series combines four different
antennas in a sleek mounting. Only a single hole is required
to mount the antenna, making this a far quicker and easier
solution than using four different antennas.
The ASF-E4-5-H7-TET whip combines 4M/2M/TETRA
functionality into a single compact and flexible package and
the TPXM-VL-VH-UHF-BNC triplexer splits the signal from the
whip to up to 3 radios with minimal loss.
TPXM-VL-VH-UHF-BNC
Allows multiband antenna to be used with 3 radios
4m, 2m & TETRA Bands
The Panorama Triplexer is housed in a compact case for
reliability and easy mounting.
This Triplexer allows the Panorama multiband antenna to
be used with up to 3 single band radios (4m, 2m & TETRA).
It uses efficient design to provide low insertion loss with
high port to port isolation and high power handling
capability.

DPD-GPS
Reduce installation costs
Run two GPS receivers from a single antenna
The Panorama DPD-GPS allows two GPS receivers to be run
from a single antenna. The DPD-GPS splits the received signal
from the antenna to two receivers while only allowing one of
the receivers to feed voltage to the antenna ensuring that
the antenna is able to function correctly.
The DPD-GPS is perfect for ensuring that multiple compatible
GPS receivers can be used in the same vehicle with the
minimum number of antennas thereby reducing clutter and
installation costs.

Panorama Support Tree
Panorama believes that quality service is essential and that every customer worldwide should have more than just one point of
contact with us. As a global company, Panorama has a number of international sales representatives responsible for countries and
regions. This enables Panorama to have someone on the ground who knows the local market and can use this knowledge to help
customers.
Whilst the local sales representative is ultimately responsible for all customers in their region, they may not be available 24/7.
Therefore, Panorama’s headquarters in London is able to liaise with the customer over issues like purchase orders, delivery
schedules, shipping details and information, sending of samples for evaluation, technical datasheets and other matters that our
international sales representative may not be able to deal with immediately.
Panorama aims to answer all questions, and deal with any problems or queries within 24 hours of the original email being sent.
