  • Abstract
    The Active Antenna System (AAS) is receiving an increased attention for the upcoming 5G cellular networks. The actual measurement AAS antennas require new thinking in active antenna measurement. This paper describes a new measurement approach based on NF antenna measurements techniques to determine directional dependent performance parameters such as EIRP and EIS and their derived performance parameters such as TRP and TIS.
