  • Abstract
    The paper presents a design of an open-boundary quad-ridged horn to be used as a wideband scalable dual-linearly polarized probe for spherical near-field antenna measurements. With a new higher-order probe correction technique developed at the Technical University of Denmark, the probe will enable high-accuracy wideband antenna measurements at the DTU-ESA Spherical Near-Field Antenna Test Facility at frequencies down to 400 MHz.
