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.

Description*

IEC 60194:2015 defines the terminology used in the field of printed circuit boards and printed circuit board assembly products. The main changes with respect to the previous edition are the following:
– Some two hundred terms and definitions have been updated, where applicable, and
