Element-level Phase Measurement and Calibration of Array Antenna for mmWave 5G Communications
2022 International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation (ISAP)
Year: 2022 | Conference Paper |
As millimeter-wave(mmWave) 5G communication is actively developed, the importance of measurement to verify its quality is emerging. In the mmWave phased array antenna, a phase deviation may occur between antennas due to manufacturing tolerances of active/passive elements, which may degrade beamforming performance. We proposed a method for measuring the element-level phase through an electro-optic(...Show More

Reduction of edge diffraction effects of MUT holder using EM absorber in W-band free-space material measurements
2016 International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation (ISAP)
Year: 2016 | Conference Paper |
Cited by: Papers (1)
In free-space material measurements, it is known that the minimum size of a planar MUT (Material Under Test) should be larger than three times the beam waist of the antenna to neglect diffraction effects at the edges of the MUT. To hold the MUT, its holder has the aperture size larger than the minimum MUT size. In the case of metal MUT holders, even though their aperture size is larger than three ...Show More
