Contemporary instrumentation for antenna measurements
Abstract
Current and future developments in antenna test instrumentation are reviewed. The trends toward automatic testing and the use of near-field techniques are discussed. Specific attention is given to a minicomputer-based automatic antenna test instrument, a programmable microwave receiver, a compact antenna range, and a planar near-field scanning system.
