21 Preliminary demonstrator 21 Near-field antenna measurement Far-field are calculated using FFT on the basis of a near-field measurement Started by measuring an array of 2 AEs Because of the low frequency of the array compared to the room dimensions, difficult to measure large scan angles IDEA: reduce the beamwidth θ by creating grating lobes
22 Preliminary demonstrator 22 Simulated patterns directivity [dbi] Elevation [deg] 2 1, d = 3λ/ deg 2 1, d = λ/ deg
