A method of measuring a total radiated power of a device under test by a test system is described. The test system has a measurement antenna, a positioning system and a control and/or measurement equipment, wherein the device under test is positioned on the positioning system. The method includes: moving the device under test with respect to an azimuth axis and an elevation axis by the positioning system; transmitting a time dependent signal by the device under test; and recording a correlation between the control and/or measurement equipment and a respective spherical position of the positioning system. Furthermore, a test system for measuring a total radiated power of a device under test is described.

Method and test system for measuring a totally radiated power

A measurement system comprising an anechoic space, a measurement antenna, a device under test, a spectrum analyzer, and a power sensor. The device under test transmits a signal. The measurement antenna measures the signal transmitted by the device under test. The signal measured by the measurement antenna is forwarded at least partly to the power sensor. The power sensor triggers the spectrum analyzer to perform a measurement. Further, a method of measuring a signal is described.

Measurement system and method of measuring a signal

A test system for measuring beam characteristics of a device under test (DUT) is provided. The system comprises a DUT, a measurement antenna configured to receive electro-magnetic radiation emitted by the DUT, a link antenna configured to provide a test communication link to the DUT, and a control and analyzing unit configured to control a beam steering of the device under test and to analyze signals from the device under test received by the measurement antenna. The test communication data transmitted to the device under test comprises beam steering control data in order to control the beam steering of the DUT.

Test system and method for measuring beam characteristics

A calibration method for calibrating a device under test with regard to at least one of phase and amplitude characteristics is described, with providing a device under test. Providing a measurement unit that has at least one measurement antenna unit configured to measure the radiated power of the device under test in the far-field region of the device under test. Turning on at least two antenna elements at the same time with at least one of a steering phase and a steering amplitude such that a peak beam, a null or a side lobe of the radiation pattern generated is directed towards the measurement antenna unit. Adjusting the phase or amplitude of at least one antenna element while the at least one other antenna element remaining stable. Recording the adjusted phase value or the adjusted amplitude value. Saving the setup corresponding to the highest measured gain or the lowest measured gain. Repeating the adjusting and recording steps for at least one other antenna element until a threshold value for the measured gain is reached.
