Abstract：Measurement of far-field of antenna is studied in this paper. The proposed method introduces a metallic ball and a dihedral calibrator as radar target for observation. A model is built for the signal received from the antenna that scans the target. A measurement equation for the antenna polarization characteristic is derived. By processing and solving the echo-voltage samples, the polarization characteristics of the antenna are obtained. The analytical expression and practical procedure are presented. Validity of the method is shown by processing of the observation data and simulation. The method can greatly reduce the development complexity and production cost of the field test, and increase fidelity of the predicted far field.
