Abstract :
This paper discusses the techniques in antenna measurements and facilities which have evolved over the last decade. The facilities include the tapered anechoic chamber, the compact range, and the near-field probing range. The significant advances in obtaining improved measurement accuracy for power gain, polarization, and swept-frequency techniques are also discussed.
