Hi Ken, Only the maximum reading over the scan height is used. The received signal is nominally the vector sum of the line of sight path and the reflected or "image" path from the ground plane. In horizontal polarization there is also 180 degree phase shift due to conservation of charge physic

Hello Tim At one of our OATS sites we have a pit under a metal hatch in the groundplane, to the rear of the EUT turntable. To do the NSA we put the signal generator down there and connect it back to the control room via a fibre optic/GPIB link. I wrote some software which steps the sig gen th
