Twist reflector monopulse antennas are commonly used in radar applications. Anechoic chambers are structures which simulate testing in free space and are used to measure the radiation pattern of an antenna. This seminar will discuss a methodology to measure the radiation properties and determine the gain of a multi-channel antenna in an anechoic chamber. This gives an unique extension to current practice that is only suitable for a single channel antenna.
