Abstract
An antenna simulator system has been developed, under a contract from European Space Agency (ESA), to evaluate the performance of an adaptive digital beam forming network (ADBFN), which was designed and constructed under the same contract. The system architecture is described. Measurements showed that a typical phase accuracy of ±1 degree was achieved with this system for a single 5 MHz IF channel
