Analysis of the environment accuracy and how it influences measurement results performed in the near zone

Abstract

Analysis of the accuracy of the relevant environment influencing the results of measurements performed in the near zone gives us a basic knowledge about the measurements of parameters of microwave antennas located in near zone. The objective of the analysis specified below is to provide an overview showing advantages and disadvantages of measurements performed in near zone and comparison of measurements done in near and far zone. © Tomáš Návrat, Vladimír Fuis, Lubomír Houfek and Miloš Vlk, 2011.
