NSI-700S-50
|
Spherical Near-field Measurement System - 56" (1.4 m) max AUT Dimension
|
| DESCRIPTION
Model
700S-50 is an ideal system for measuring medium and low gain antennas
up to 56 inches (1.4 m) in diameter and is well suited to cellular and
PCS band base-station antenna testing. The 700S-50 uses a dual-axis phi-over-theta
high accuracy stepper motor based positioning system with an adjustable
extension foot for probe support. The system is constructed of modular
high strength aluminum and can support loads of up to 165 pounds (75 kg).
The location of the probe, theta and phi stages are fully adjustable to
accommodate different antenna sizes and mounts. This simple design is
easy to assemble and can be quickly dismantled for transport or storage. |
| CAPABILITIES
The
system interfaces with a wide variety of RF equipment and is capable
of measuring amplitude and phase patterns from L-band to mmWave Bands.
The Model 700S-50 includes NSI Antenna Measurement Software.
The system
software runs on a Pentium based measurement workstation and provides
automatic setup of scans based on measurement parameters and desired
output. Measured data can be processed for far-field or holographic
patterns yielding complete characterization of the antenna’s performance.
A single data set provides information on antenna gain, side lobe structure,
beam pointing and cross polarization.
The Model 700S-50 can be supplied
with a variety of options to enhance system performance. |
