Abstract


This letter presents a non-probabilistic interval-based calculation method for antenna performance evaluation. After the interval function of antenna far field pattern is given, the interval calculation process for complex exponential is deduced. Then the power pattern function affected by distortion errors is derived in accordance with interval operation rules. The method is applied to an 8-meter antenna as a numerical example.

Keywords
