AN ARCHITECTURAL FRAMEWORK FOR A UNIVERSAL MICROWAVE MEASUREMENT SYSTEM Syed I. Tariq Microwave Instrumentation Technologies, LLC 4500 River Green Parkway, Suite 200 Duluth, GA 20096 Abstract Introduction The complexity of modern antennas has resulted in Testing of modern antennas imposes significant the need to increase the productivity of ranges by challenges on the instrumentation and software needed to orders of magnitude. This has been achieved by a complete these measurements reliably and quickly. combination of improved measurement techniques, Modern antennas typically operate in multiple states and faster instrumentation and by increased automation over wide frequency ranges. They may consist of of the measurement process. This paper concentrates multiple input/output ports, and a large number of beam on automated measurement systems, and describes states characterized by beam indices, beam positions and the requirements necessary to make such systems beam configurations. Even with the higher measurement effective in production testing, and in research and capabilities (10,000 complex measurements per second) development settings. The paper also describes one of modern receivers such as the MI-1797, it is not such implementation – the MI Technologies Model unusual fo
