  • Abstract
    This paper is presenting the experimental performance of a circular microwave holography algorithm for the troubleshooting of in-service array antennas. The experiment is conducted using an algorithm for the estimation of array element excitations from circular near field measurements. The experimental results exceed those obtained from the preliminary numerical simulations.
