IEC Releases IEC TR 63099-1:2017 for Radio-Over Fibre Technologies for Antenna Measurement

Untitled-3

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has released IEC TR 63099-1:2017. This technical reports details “Transmitting equipment for radio communication – Radio-over fibre technologies for electromagnetic-field measurement – Part 1: Radio-over-fibre technologies for antenna measurement” and is now available on the IEC webstore.

Description: “IEC TR 63099-1:2017 provides information about the current and latest applications for antenna measurement that use radio-over-fibre technologies. Antenna gain and the antenna radiation pattern measurement system are covered, which are practically in use and will be used soon. Basic concepts, system configurations and measurement examples of the systems are included.

Near and Far Field Measurements with a Vector Network Analyzer

For optimal performance in over-the-air RF systems, antennas must meet specific requirements. Performance parameters like size, wind-loading, environmental ruggedness, transmission pattern, bandwidth, and power handling capability should be considered. Methods of measuring the transmission (or reception) pattern that determines antenna gain with a VNA will be examined in this article.
