At ETS‑Lindgren, our near-field scanner solutions provide precise and efficient antenna characterization for a variety of applications, including aerospace, defense, wireless communications, and research. Our near-field measurement systems are designed to accurately assess antenna performance by capturing electromagnetic field data at close proximity before transforming it into far-field results. This approach enables high-resolution measurements while reducing the space and environmental constraints associated with traditional far-field testing.
Near-field Scanners
High-resolution ETS‑Lindgren near-field scanners capture detailed electromagnetic behavior of antennas and devices. They provide fast, repeatable data for design, diagnostics, and OTA validation.
Our near-field scanners support multiple scanning methodologies, including planar, cylindrical, and spherical scanning, to accommodate different antenna types and test requirements. With advanced positioning systems, RF measurement instrumentation, and automation software, we ensure highly accurate and repeatable data collection. Our solutions are capable of measuring gain, phase, polarization, beamwidth, and radiation patterns, providing comprehensive insight into antenna performance.
By leveraging our expertise in electromagnetic testing and system integration, ETS‑Lindgren delivers turnkey near-field measurement solutions that enhance testing efficiency and accuracy. Our systems are designed for ease of use, featuring automated processes and seamless data analysis tools to help engineers and researchers optimize antenna designs and meet stringent industry standards.
