Abstract

A feed for a compact antenna test range operating in P-band in single polarization has been manufactured and tested in the SATIMO SG-64 multiprobe spherical near field test range in Paris. The feed consist of an array of 4 high gain log-periodic elements. This paper briefly describes the consideration on antenna design and manufacturing and report on the final testing including considerations on the associated measurement uncertainty.
