Abstract
A system and method for making improved measurements of integrated antenna arrays utilizes vector network analyzer (VNA) and a calibrated receive-side system comprising two antennae, dual reflectometers coupled to the two antennae for match correction, a wide band intermediate frequency (IF) strip which connects the receive-side system to the input ports of the VNA, an air gap which separates the receive-side system form the DUT, and a stepmotion baffle configure to be inserted into the air gap to modify antenna coupling. The system and method enable measurement of noise characteristics of the DUT including nonlinear effects of transmitter element coupling between the plurality of transmitter elements within an antenna array.
