  • Abstract
    A description is given of the techniques involved in measuring the properties of microwave antennas. The measuring methods which are peculiar to these frequencies are discussed, and include the measurement of gain, beam width, minor lobes, wideangle radiation, mutual coupling between antennas, phase, and polarization. The requirements of the antenna testing site are taken up, and components of a complete measuring system are briefly described.
