Near Field Characterization of the GeoSTAR Demonstrator
2006
2006 IEEE International Symposium on Geoscience and Remote Sensing
The GeoSTAR demonstrator can be characterized at close range by means of a simple near-to-far-field phase correction. This reduces the test set-up configuration to reasonable dimensions. ...
This work presents the details of the near-to-far-field correction as well as some preliminary results that confirm its suitability to characterize the demonstrator. ...
