This paper overviews the emerging antenna and EM field measurement strategies based on the modern Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology. UAVs are currently being exploited as source/probe antenna positioners in various applications from HF to microwaves. Several contributions from all-over the world will be discussed in terms of measurement approach, RF setup and positioning strategies. A measurement example at 350 MHz highlights the importance of position and orientation accuracy in the post-processing chain.

Abstract

This paper overviews the emerging antenna and EM field measurement strategies based on the modern Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology. UAVs are currently being exploited as source/probe antenna positioners in various applications from HF to microwaves. Several contributions from all-over the world will be discussed in terms of measurement approach, RF setup and positioning strategies. A measurement example at 350 MHz highlights the importance of position and orientation accuracy in the post-processing chain.
