Mode Amplitude in dBMARS Mode AnalysisSpherical Modes for M=1• Spherical near-field to far-fieldtransformation involves sortingmeasured energy into sphericalmodes• Higher order modes are caused byreflections and can be filtered outif identified to be outside thephysical boundary of the antenna• Plot at right shows• Normal SNF modes• Modes after phase center trans.• Mode cutoff chosen based onphysical aperture size limit0-5-10-15-20-25-30-35-40-45-50-55-60-65-70Meas Trans maxmodes = 610 20 30 40 50 60Mode N Number14

Key MARS Requirements• Over sampling the data in Theta and Phi helps the process• Offsetting antenna phase center helps the process• Need to estimate or determine the phase center of the AUT• Not required for MARS• Knowledge of the AUT pattern• Knowledge of the test range configuration• Not frequency limited15
