ABSTRACT A measuring technique for antenna gain is presented, based on averaging a
normalized transfer function over a distance range. Criteria for setting the distance range are …

Band-pass microwave systems such as ultra-wideband antennas are traditionally
characterized in the frequency-domain through a vector network analyzer in an anechoic …

The traditional stimulus signal used in a time-domain reflectometer (TDR) is a voltage step.
We propose an alternative technique, whereby an impulse generator is employed in place of …

In this article, a novel modified stimulus signal is used to improve the accuracy of localizing
discontinuities for time‐domain reflectometry (TDR) measurements. This pulse shaping puts …

We have previously proposed an indoor measuring technique for antenna gain, based on
averaging a normalized transfer function over a distance range. Simulated and measured …

In this paper, a novel time domain method by using a modified time domain reflectometry is
presented for high accuracy modeling of microstrip discontinuities. The ordinary stimulus …

In this paper, a novel method for accurate modeling of microstrip discontinuities based on
pulse shaping modulation is presented. The proposed method uses a novel excitation signal …

Previously, the author has described a method for measuring the antenna gain in non-
anechoic sites. The effects of reflection and diffraction on the neighboring objects can be …

Band-pass microwave systems such as ultrawideband (UWB) antennas are traditionally
characterized in the frequency-domain through a vector network analyzer (VNA) in an …
