Advanced Field Interpolation from Plane-Polar Samples: Experimental Verification

Page 204.

Abstract:

A new and advanced sampling technique far-field interpolation with a nonredundant number of samples on plane-polar geometry has been experimentally validated for cases of both complex and only-amplitude measurements. Experimental results show good stability of the interpolation algorithm with respect to noise and the lack of samples in the case of a limited scanning area.
