  • Abstract
    This paper describes how the gated time - domain technique can be utilized to effectively reduce a number of error sources affecting the accuracy of NF antenna measurements. The necessary conditions are derived for the technique application in Planar and Spherical Near-Field measurements. The technique implementation and practical applications are discussed as well.
