The facility consists of a GPR test range, a PC-controlled scanner, a UWB sensor, and measuring equipment. The test range was constructed as a wooden sandbox of 3 m × 3 m × 1.6 m and filled with dry sand with relative permittivity of 5.1. The scanner is used for accurate antenna positioning above the sand and fully controlled from a PC. A control software has been developed to allow automatic data acquisition and antenna positioning, important for measurements of antenna footprints. The measuring equipment consists of a vector network analyzer, a sampling converter and pulse generators to allow accurate measurements in frequency as well as time domain. © 2007 IEEE.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text](p ,p ,t) measurements,Accurate measurements,Control software (CS),Dry sand,Ground penetrating radar (GPR) antennas,Ground-penetrating radar (GPR),Indonesia,International (CO),Measuring equipments,Relative permittivity (RP),Test ranges,Time domain (OCT),Ultra wideband (UWB) sensor,Vector network analyzer (VNA)[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Antenna measurement,GPR antenna test range,Time-domain antenna measurement,UWB antenna measurement[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/AGPR.2007.386557[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
