An Alternative Spherical near Field to Far Field Transformation

A Nonredundant Near-Field to Far-Field Transformation with Spherical Spiral Scanning for Nonspherical Antennas

A fast and accurate near-field – far-field transformation technique with spherical spiral scanning tailored for nonspherical antennas, i.e., radiating systems with two dimensions very different from the third one, is developed in this paper. To this end, an antenna with one or two predominant dimensions (e.g., base station antennas and reflectarrays) is no longer considered as enclosed in a sph...

Polarization-Current-Based FDTD Near-to-Far-Field Transformation

A new near-to-far-field transformation algorithm for three-dimensional finite-different time-domain is presented in this article. This new approach is based directly on the polarization current of the scatterer, not the scattered near fields. It therefore eliminates the numerical errors originating from the spatial offset of the E and H fields, inherent in the standard near-to-far-field transfo...
