Abstract :
This study proposes a new calibration method which can reduce antenna factor variations obtained by using the standard site method in a finite-size ground plane. The investigation has been performed numerically with the method of moments in the horizontal and vertical polarizations. Furthermore, the influences of ground size in calibration measurement are analyzed and a new calibration model is also carried out.
