Near-field Measurement

Near-field measurement is a technique used to analyze the electromagnetic properties of antennas or devices by examining the fields very close to the antenna's surface. Instead of measuring performance from far away, technicians scan the electromagnetic fields in a small area nearby, which provides detailed information about the antenna's design and behavior. This approach allows for more precise adjustments and ensures the antenna functions correctly before deploying it in real-world scenarios. Once measurements are complete, the data can be processed to predict how the antenna will perform at a distance, improving efficiency and accuracy.
