Abstract: The possibility of determining the far field of radiating systems by measuring only the near-field amplitude is investigated. The main difficulties of the problem are examined in some detail and a new near-field/far-field transformation technique is developed, based on the measurement of the near-field amplitude over two surfaces surrounding the antenna under test. The accuracy of the far-field reconstruction results are related both to the distance between such surfaces and to some a priori information concerning the near-field phase and/or the radiating system. The information on the radiating system allows relaxation of the need for any information on the near-field phase provided that the distance between the measurement surfaces is high enough. Conversely, the knowledge of a more or less corrupted near-field phase allows reduction of such distances without affecting the accuracy of the far-field reconstruction. Numerical examples validating the effectiveness of the developed algorithm are provided for the planar scanning case. >

Holographic phase-retrieval method of near-field antenna pattern measurement for bolometer-array-equipped millimeter-wave telescopes
TL;DR: In this paper , a holographic phase-retrieval method was proposed to enable near-field measurements with the bolometric detector array as it is, where a reference emitter is placed at a fixed position and a signal emitter at the telescope aperture, and two emitters are phase-locked and generate interference patterns (holograms) on the focal plane, from which the amplitude and phase of the aperture field can be retrieved.

On the degrees of freedom of scattered fields
TL;DR: In this article, the Nyquist number was shown to be practically equal to the effective (spatial) bandwidth of the scattered field and to the extension of the observation domain, and it was shown that the field representation can be made in terms of field values and simple sampling functions.

On the spatial bandwidth of scattered fields
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the scattered fields are almost space band-limited functions and that the effective bandwidth of a very general scattering system is very simply related to the maximum dimension of the scattering system; the error drops to negligible values for modest increases of w compared to W, in the case of large scatterers.

A method for the solution of the phase problem in electron microscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, the amplitude and phase from the intensity distribution of an electron micrograph is estimated using the relative defocus between micrographs, and the procedure is valid both in bright field and dark field microscopy for any specified coherence of the electron source.
