An Effective Spherical NF/FF Transformation Suitable for Characterising an Antenna under Test in Presence of an Infinite Perfectly Conducting Ground Plane

An effective near-field to far-field transformation using a reduced number of near-field measurements collected via a spherical scan over the upper hemisphere, due to the presence of a flat metallic ground, is devised in this paper. Such a transformation relies on the non-redundant sampling represen...
