  • Abstract
    We proposed a novel in-orbit antenna pattern measurement method. We measured ETS-VIIIpsilas onboard antenna pattern using the proposed method. We confirmed that the measured and calculated patterns were in good agreement. Our method offers high accuracy measurements as well as short measurement times.
