Abstract

The error analysis has been investigated since 1975 since recent publications, as shown in references as (Newell et al., 1975) where the classical 18 terms for planar near field systems where established. It is also worth mentioning the more recent studies developed inside the actions under the “Antenna Measurement” activity of the “Antenna Centre of Excellence (ACE)” within the sixth framework research program of the European Union. In particular, that work pretended to establish common error calculation criteria in spherical near-field and far-field antenna measurement systems. The results of that research were summarized in an exhaustive deliverable (Alexandridis et al., 2007), which detailed the observations stated by several research institutions. In that deliverable it was agreed that the causes of uncertainties and errors in a spherical near-field antenna measurement are divided in six categories:
