| Recommended semester: 7th - 9th semester |
| Scope and form: Project course with practical as well as theoretical work. |
| Evaluation: Approval of exercises and reports
|
| Examination: Pass/fail |
| Previous course: 48420 |
| Prerequisites: 31430 / 48110 Wireless Communication or Introductory Electromagnetic Theory. The course requires a thorough knowledge of antennas and radio wave propagation. |
| No credit points with: 48420 |
| Participant limitation: Min. 4 Max. 8 |
| Aim: The students must acquire a knowledge about measurement of antenna parameters in radio anechoic chambers, and a skill to conduct such measurements. |
| Contents: One or more topics within measurements of antenna radiation, polarization and gain; in particular, near-field measurements and near-field to far-field transformation. |
| Remarks: The practical work is conducted in the DTU-ESA Spherical Near-Field Antenna Test Facility, which is operated by ØRSTED.DTU in collaboration with the European Space Agency, ESA. |
