Abstract
An outdoor cylindrical near field antenna measurement system was designed and fabricated in Guadalajara (Spain) for measuring large L-band RADAR antennas. This design was presented in EuCap 2006 by Martin, F., et al. (2006), where the theoretical error analysis and the main description of the complete system were presented. This paper presents the solutions adopted for solving some of the problems presented in the outdoor design: the first of them due to temperature variations, the second one to the effect of the wind and the third one to the reflections in the ground.
