Antenna Calibration
Our Antenna Calibration process follows the requirements of ANSI C63.5, resulting in data collection with a resolution of less than 500 kHz.
While this procedure may produce many data points, we will reduce the antenna factor data to a manageable value while maintaining an accuracy of 0.1 dB with respect to the full breath of data.
This table describes our scope of accreditation for antenna calibrations:
| Parameter/Equipment | Range | Best Uncertainty (±) | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| Antenna Factor | |||
| Biconical | (30 to 200) MHz | 0.53dB | ANSI C63.5 Annex 1 with HP8594E, 8494EM |
| Log Periodic | 200 MHz to 1 GHz | 0.61 db | ANSI C63.5 Annex 1 with HP8594E, 8494EM |
| BiLog | 30 MHz to 2000 MHz | 1.82 | ANSI C63.5 Annex 1 with HP8594 EM |
| Horn | (1 to 18) GHz | 0.74 dB | ANSI C63.5 Annex 1 |
| Rod | 10kHz to 100 MHz | 0.55 dB | ANSI C63.5 Annex 1, ANSI C63.5 with HP8594E, 8494EM |
