Abstract: The nonideal plane wave in the quiet zone (QZ) of the compact antenna test range (CATR) can cause measurement errors for some antennas under test (AUTs). This letter presents the reference ...

The concept of using light as a weapon dates back over 2,000 years to ancient Greece, where commander Hippocrates used polished mirrors to set Roman ships ablaze. For a long time, laser weapons were ...

Abstract: Test set compaction is one of the key steps of the postproduction test known to bring down test pattern counts. This, in turn, allows one to reduce the corresponding test data volume, test ...
