OpenEM – Electromagnetic field mapping robot for microwave and RF measurements

A low-cost, fully automated, electromagnetic field probing robot is described in this paper. The platform, called OpenEM Field Robot, is capable of mapping the spatial electromagnetic fields in free space. The system supports multiple antenna configurations and is scalable to large measurement domai...
