Data set for: "Compact Homodyne Extrapolation System (CHEXS)"

Description

Data set for figures in the paper titled "Compact Homodyne Extrapolation System (CHEXS)".Abstract: We present on a novel gain extrapolation antenna range, the Compact Homodyne Extrapolation System (CHEXS), that can achieve absolute antenna gain measurements with uncertainties of +/-0.1 dB or better with as few at 10 data points and is significantly more compact, up to six times shorter than conventional gain extrapolation ranges. This compact gain extrapolation range achieves these beneficial attributes by measuring the homodyne signal that occurs naturally between two directional antennas that often exhibit strong third order mutual coupling at close proximity. The design and operation of the CHEXS is presented along with gain measurements of NIST reference standard gain antennas which are shown to be equivalent to those obtained using a conventional gain extrapolation range.
