The 200V-3x3 is an ideal system for measuring medium and high gain antennas (>15 dBi) with small apertures making it suitable for testing feeds and small arrays or reflector antennas. The 200V-3x3 is based on an inverted design and is constructed of modular high strength aluminum. This simple design is easy to assemble and align, accurate, and can be quickly dismantled for relocation or storage.
The system interfaces with a wide variety of RF equipment and is capable of measuring amplitude and phase patterns from S-band to mmWave bands. The system includes NSI Antenna Measurement Software. The system software runs on a Pentium based measurement workstation and provides automatic setup of scans based on measurement parameters and desired output. Measured data can be processed for farfield or holographic patterns yielding complete characterization of the antenna’s performance. A single data set provides complete characterization of the antenna’s gain, side lobes structure, beam pointing and cross polarization. The Model 200V-3x3 can be supplied with a variety of options and can be upgraded to allow for cylindrical or spherical measurements to expand system performance.
