3 Figure 2 RadPat Graphical User Interface The graphical user interface of the RadPat software consists of the following features: a) Rotator control tab b) Settings tab c) Rotator measurement results display panel d) Antenna radiation pattern polar chart e) Status bar The RadPat software is a tool to communicate with the RF detector. The RadPat software is capable of rotating the receiver module antenna and displaying the antenna angular position. It allows the configuration of serial communications, and detects serial communication errors. It is also capable of collecting measurement data from the RF detector and displaying the data in a list, as well as plotting the antenna radiation pattern on the polar chart.

4 4 - ME1300 Module Connections Note: To get the best accuracy, you should perform calibration before making any measurements on your RF detector. Please refer to Appendix C for the calibration procedure. 1. Mount a 915 MHz dipole antenna on the top connector of the fixed antenna holder on the transmitter module (TX). This is the transmitting antenna. 2. Use an RF coaxial cable to connect the RF OUT connector of the RF signal generator to the RF IN connector of the transmitter module (TX). 3. Mount another 915 MHz dipole antenna (AUT) onto the top connector of the rotatable antenna holder on the receiver module (RX). This is the receiving antenna. 4. Connect the RF IN connector and RF OUT connector on the receiver module (RX) using a coaxial cable (to send the signal back to the RF detector). 5. You can orientate the two antennas at different directions but make sure that they are of the same height. Note: The distance between both antennas must be at least 0.5 m to perform the measurement in the far-field region. 5 - RadPat Software Configuration 1. The RadPat software communicates with the receiver module and the RF detector. 2. Open the RadPat software; click Settings at the menu bar, and select ComPort. The dialog box as shown in Figure 3 appears. 3. In the ComPort tab, select the desired PC ComPort and make sure that the selected PC ComPort matches the one set earlier for the PC. 4. Set the Baud Rate to You may click the Check ComPort Connection button to verify the COM port connection of the PC.

5 Figure 3 ComPort Settings Tab 5. Click the Instrument tab and unselect Enable Instrument. The RF detector will be activated when the Enable Instrument is unselected. Figure 4 Instrument Settings Tab 6. In the RF signal generator, set Frequency to 915 MHz. This is the frequency of the antenna-under-test (AUT). 7. Set Power Level to -10 dbm. 8. Click the Measurement tab. This allows you to change the measurement parameters as shown in Figure 5.

6 Figure 5 Measurement Settings Tab 9. Deg/Step in the Rotator panel defines the turning angle of the rotator. The program will observe and record the data for every step position defined in Deg/Step. The minimum and maximum values are 5 degrees and 30 degrees respectively. By default, Deg/Step is set to Radiation Pattern Plot defines the 0-dB reference value for the radiation pattern. By default, it is set to 20 dbm. 11. Scale lets you adjust the resolution of the radiation pattern on the polar chart. Set the resolution to 15 db/div. 12. Click Connect after configuring all the desired parameters. This will bring the rotator back to its home position. 13. The Info Display tab shows the information of the configured parameters and the operations of RadPat. Figure 6 Info Display Tab

7 14. After the homing operation has completed, the window will return to the RadPat main interface. Click Run at the menu bar to perform the Start, Pause, Stop, and Homing operations of the rotator. 15. Click Graph at menu bar to Normalize or Undo the normalization of the radiation pattern. 16. RadPat allows you to save the plotted data and display the data when necessary, as shown in Figure 8. To save the data, click File at the menu bar, and then click Save As. Select the desired directory to save the plotted data. To recall the saved data, click File at the menu bar, and then click Open. Select the corresponding directory to retrieve the data. Figure 7 Show Recorded Data Display 17. You may click a particular plotted data in the DATA POINT panel. The selected point in the radiation pattern will be indicated as a red circle.

8 6 - Plotting Antenna Radiation Pattern Using RF Detector 1. After completing the configuration procedure in Section 2 and Section 3, adjust the horizontal distance between the two antennas to 50 cm Open the RadPat software; click Connect to configure the desired parameters. Click Run at the menu bar, and then click Start to begin plotting the antenna radiation pattern. 3. Observe the plot and record the received signal strength at each step (e.g., 10 ) into Table 1 in Appendix A. 4. Plot the received strength at each step in Polar Chart 915 MHz Dipole Antenna Using RF Detector in Appendix B. 5. Repeat steps 1 to 8 by replacing the transmitting and receiving antennas with 915 MHz monopole antennas. 6. Observe the plot and record the received signal strength at each step (e.g., 10 ) into Table 2 in Appendix A. 7. Plot the received strength at each step Polar Chart 915 MHz Monopole Antenna Using RF Detector in Appendix B.
