Abstract :
A novel algorithm for correcting probe position errors in planar near-field measurements is presented. The basic principle of this algorithm in practical planar near-field antenna measurements is given. Furthermore this algorithm is validated by experiments. The results of experiments prove the correctness, validity and engineering practicability of the algorithm presented in this paper.
