RF Modelling and Validation of the Breadboard Antenna of the Copernicus Imaging Microwave Radiometer
21 Mar 2024
A 1.4 m representative breadboard of the Copernicus Imaging Microwave Radiometer (CIMR) mesh reflector antenna was manufactured and its radiated field was measured using the planar near-field scanner of Thales Alenia Space Italy (TASI) in Rome. In this paper we describe the RF modelling of the CIMR breadboard in its measurement conditions and correlate the measured fields with the predicted fields in Ka bands.
