Abstract :
A new hybrid algorithm for correcting probe position errors in planar near-field measurements is presented and computer simulated. The calculation results show that the hybrid algorithm presented in this paper has a fast convergence rate, good numerical stability, high precision of calculation and strong universality and applicability and is an applied and effective method for correcting probe position errors in planar near-field measurements.
