Compact Ranges

MI Technologies’ Compact Range equipment is designed for accurate, indoor antenna and radar cross section (RCS) measurements. A compact range allows plane wave illumination, normally achieved by use of a large distance between the microwave source and the antenna or target under test, to be realized in a small space.

A Compact Range provides freedom and flexibility for your test schedule because it is unaffected by weather conditions and the time of day. In addition measurements are not affected by wind gusts and temperature inversions which can degrade phase and position data or skew the RF beam. In addition, a Compact Range housed in an enclosed structure enhances security. Use of a Compact Range makes an enclosed test facility practical to build and economical to maintain.

The high performance and broad scope of frequency range and test article dimensions accommodated by MI Technologies’ Compact Range Reflectors and Feeds allow for the construction of the right-sized Compact Range to meet your test and measurement requirements.
