How accurate is the open-ended waveguide probe model included in the NSI 2000 software?
The OEWG probe model is based on a NIST algorithm (Yaghjian-1983). The model provides a far-field prediction of an open-ended waveguide probe with an accuracy of approximately 0.15 to 0.4 dB over +/- 60 degrees in Elevation and Azimuth.
