Abstract
A method to measure the far field antenna pattern of an experimental antenna on a smaller range than conventionally used. The basic innovation of the present invention is that the implementation is moved in straight line, toward or away from the antenna under test (AUT), and the measurements are taken while the AUT is rotated about its phase center in a manner that is synchronized with the radial probe.
