Abstract

New facilities for time-domain antenna measurements have been developed.Specific features of these facilities are: antenna measurements bandwidth from 1GHz till 26GHz, short measurement time due to the pulse repetition rate of 10MHz and high stability of the time and magnitude axis. These facilities include a set of reference antennas and EM field probes, pulse generators, UWB signal conditioners, sampling converterm antenna positioners, 2D scanners and control software. The facilities can be used for near-field as well as for far-field antenna measurements.
