Antenna Testing Capabilities Expanded with Spherical Near-Field Range

Antenna testing capabilities expanded with spherical near-field range

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) is expanding its antenna measurement capabilities with a state-of-the-art spherical near-field antenna range. The 1,260-square-foot indoor range, lined with radio frequency and microwave foam absorbers, is equipped to accurately sample the near field of an antenna. Near-field measurements can be mathematically transformed into far-field data.
