Full Description

Scope

This document describes near-field test practices for the measurement of antenna properties. It provides information on developments in near-field measurements that have occurred since the writing of IEEE Std 149-1979 (IEEE Standard Test Procedures for Antennas). This document recommends near-field measurement practices for the three principal geometries: cylindrical, planar, and spherical, and also recommends measurement practices for the calibration of probes used as reference antennas in near-field measurements

Purpose

The purpose of this recommended practice document is to provide practical guidance to those who are planning to do near-field measurements. This document also specifies capabilities required of a near-field measurement system.

Abstract

New IEEE Standard - Active.Near-field test practices for the measurement of antenna properties are described in this document and near-field measurement practices for the three principal geometries: cylindrical, planar, and spherical are recommended. Measurement practices for the calibration of probes used as reference antennas in near-field measurements are also recommended.
