Characterization and Calibration of the Hybrid OTA Chamber Using a Field Scanner

• This paper investigates the characterization and calibration procedure of the hybrid over-the-air (OTA) measurement chamber. We present a prototype of the hybrid chamber and analyze its capabilities to generate a plane wave spectrum in practice. A planar field scanner is used to acquire the embedded element fields of the chamber array for test zone (TZ) synthesis in post-processing. The repeatability of the field acquisition is evaluated. It is shown that the synthesized TZ meets the 3GPP specifications for TZ field variations for plane wave generators (PWG) in the presence of acquisition imperfections.
