MI Technologies
Completes Large Turntable Positioner for
EMI/EMC Testing
MI Technologies recently delivered
an 11-meter, MI-7121 Turntable to South Korea's Agency for Defense
Development (ADD). The steel turntable will be used for EMI and EMC
testing of aircraft and large tactical vehicles.

MI Technologies' MI-7121 ground-level drive-on turntable is ideally
suited for EMI, EMC or on-vehicle antenna testing. The strength and
size of the MI-7121 makes it ideal for telematics testing of large vehicles. The
outer rim of the turntable's surface platter is supported by a
rolling ring and fixed castor assemblies which allow a vehicle to
drive onto the turntable from any direction and be placed anywhere
on the platter. The vehicle can be moved as needed for antenna
testing to position the antenna at the center of rotation.

MI Technologies to Host Test
and Measurement Solutions Center at AMTA 2007
MI Technologies is
making its best engineering talent available for focused consulting
sessions on a wide range of test and measurement issues during AMTA,
2007 in St. Louis, November 4-9.
Offered at AMTA for
the second year, The Solutions Center offers AMTA participants an
opportunity to discuss their particular antenna, radar
cross-section, radome measurement or test range issues with MI
Technologies' engineers in a casual, non-sales environment.
The MI Technologies
'Solutions Center' will be open Monday through Thursday during the
symposium. Participants are urged to reserve their session in
advance.
Jeff Fordham, Vice
President of Marketing for MI Technologies, said, "We're bringing
our senior engineers to AMTA to listen, and provide counsel on a
wide variety of issues such as range layouts, types of test and
measurement systems, test range automation, difficult measurement
tasks and test and measurement errors and accuracy problems. When we
introduced the Solutions Center at AMTA last year, our schedule of
sessions filled up fast. Our informal meetings encourage creative
thinking and discussion that stimulate workable test and measurement
solutions."
Senior members of MI
Technologies' technical staff available for consultations include
Dr. Donald Bodnar, Dr. Doren Hess, Marion Baggett, Jeff Fordham,
Donald Weiss, David Smith, Becky Kaffezakis and Scott McBride.
"We're coming to AMTA
2007 with our best engineers, a white board and the time to listen
and talk about test and measurement solutions," Fordham said.

Paper: "The Impact of Local Area Networks on Antenna Measurement
Range Design" by Marion Baggett
MI Technologies'
Manager of Applications and Systems Engineering, Marion Baggett,
discusses the influence of LAN-based microwave instruments (IEEE
802.3 interfaces) on antenna test range design and capability. The
paper reviews the benefits of LAN-based instrumentation systems and
several example range designs are included to demonstrate how
LAN-based instrumentation can increase range flexibility and reduce
costs in range implementation.

Sheet
MI Technologies' MI-3103 or MI-3104
Synthesized Signal Sources provide fast, accurate and economical
signal generation solution for a wide range of test and measurement
applications. The sources are designed to be used in test and
measurement situations where remote RF and microwave frequency
tuning is required, making them ideal for antenna, radome and other
microwave measurement applications. The signal sources are available
in two versions, the MI-3103 (0.01 to 20 GHz) and the MI-3104 (2 to
20 GHz). Click Here to download the new data sheet.
Table Top Far-Field Microwave Antenna
Test Range Featured at IEEE-AP-S
MI Technologies exhibited a
tabletop display of a Far-Field Microwave Antenna Test Range during
the 2007 IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation.
The symposium, sponsored by the IEEE Antennas and Propagation
Society, was held at the Sheraton Waikiki Hotel, Honolulu Hawaii,
June 10-15.
MI Technologies displayed a
fully functional MI-2097 Automated Microwave Measurement System (AMMS)
which features the MI-1797 Microwave Receiver, the MI-3001 Data
Acquisition and Analysis Work Station and the MI-4190 Position
Controller.
MI Technologies' AMMS offers
fast and efficient test and measurement capability for a wide range
of applications. The MI-2097 allows users to fully automate the
antenna measurement process, from setup to analysis and reports.
