  • Abstract
    The results of a comparative investigation of four antenna gain determination techniques are presented. The gain of a C- band 4times4 element slotted waveguide array antenna was determined at 10 frequencies by a total of 11 implementations of the chosen techniques. Uncertainties of each implementation were estimated and a weighted reference value (WRV) for the gain of the antenna was established. The gain values obtained by each technique were compared against the established WRV and benchmarking of each implementation was done.
