Abstract :
A method for improving site attenuation and antenna-factor measurements using time-domain gating is presented. Results of measurements for biconical antennas in the 20-200 MHz range for both polarizations, using various time gates are presented. It is shown that a judicious choice of time gates results in a tremendous improvement in the accuracy of site attenuation and antenna-factor measurements especially for the vertical polarization.<>
