Interferometrics has developed a portable holographic antenna measurement system. The system is comprised of a small interferometer which uses satellite signals to measure the complex beam pattern of the antenna under test. A PC controls all aspects of data collection and analysis. The system produces maps of surface profile errors and the illumination power in reflector antennas.
