Technical
Paper on an Advanced Compact Test Range for Both Radome and Antenna
Measurement Available for Downloading
Dr. Bjorn Widenberg of Chelton
Applied Composites AB Linkoping, Sweden has authored a paper
entitled "Advanced Compact Test Range (CTR) for Both Radome
Measurements and Antenna Measurements." The CTR, produced and
installed by MI Technologies as a turnkey project, is designed for a
wide range of test and measurement applications ranging from small
missile radomes up to large fighter radomes, to waveguide horns and
reflector antennas. The CTR features a very advanced positioner
which has two particular characteristics: 1) several axes can be
moved simultaneously, so that virtual axis can be realized or axes
can be counter-steered to each other, and 2) the radome antenna can
be put in monopulse tracking mode so that the antenna can
automatically and independently track the incident wave. The paper
presents the CTR and all its characteristics.
