Abstract
The characteristics of an in-orbit test station antenna
must be known very accurately in order to carry out
accurate satellite in-orbit measurements. This paper
describes the antenna measurements of the in-orbit test
station antenna which will be used to measure the
performance of the Ka-band data relay payload of the
Artemis satellite. The key task is to minimise the errors
in the antenna cross-polar and gain measurements. The
special means to achieve this goal are described in
detail.
