In this paper, we apply a recently developed 3D
source reconstruction algorithm to perform antenna diagnostics
on a planar array configuration. The test case is a planar X-band
slot...
A general, accurate, and efficient stand-alone commercial program for antenna diagnostics, DIATOOL, has been developed by TICRA. The software reconstructs the field or the equivalent currents on a...
This paper concerns the EM-modelling of high-accuracy reflector antenna systems, and in particular of reflectors for space antenna systems. Recent modelling developments are exemplified ranging...
A higher-order inverse method of moments algorithm, employing smooth current and geometry representations, as well as a very noise-robust solution algorithm, was presented at last year’s ESA...
GRASP has for many years constituted the de facto standard in the space community for advanced reflector antenna modeling. The tool has furthermore found widespread use in the earth station...
The accuracy of various techniques for calculating the radiation from printed reflectarrays is examined, and an improved technique based on the equivalent currents approach is proposed. The...
This contribution deals with the problem of reconstructing the extreme near-field of an antenna starting from the field measured at a larger distance. The presented method has several applications...
