Abstract

A compact antenna gain measurement system suitable for wireless devices is presented. The method needs the antenna under test, a planar electric conductor, and a vector analyzer. It is possible to obtain the total gain by a reflection measurement. Several simulations show a guideline to optimize the set-up. Finally, some wireless devices operating at GSM900, GSM1900, and Bluetooth® are tested and compared with gain obtained by a three radiation pattern method.
