KRISS Robot-Based Antenna Measurement System

A robot-based antenna measurement system is proposed. The system configuration and initial operating procedure are briefly introduced. Using a laser tracker, three models of robots were tested to determine their positional accuracy. The vertical and horizontal accuracies of robots were within ± 0.15 mm in the working distance of 400 mm. We utilized the three-antenna method and present the preliminary antenna gain data of one KRISS W-band standard gain horn antenna to compare the measurement accuracy of KR-MANMS with that of a conventional fully anechoic chamber.
