Abstract
A new antenna pattern verification system based on a flying far-field source has been recently developed [1]. It performs the antenna validation considering the measured received power level at the antenna port. This paper discusses the deembedding procedure that is used to obtain the antenna pattern from such measured data. The measured radiation patterns of a log-periodic antenna operating at 408 MHz are found in good agreement with the full-wave predictions.
