Abstract :
Gaussian-beam phase-space-array analysis is a new method for computing the propagation of a signal beam through a multi-reflector quasi-optical system. Its use in verifying the function of a tri-reflector compact antenna test range is described here. This demonstrates the accuracy, flexibility and speed of the method.
