The [[NeoScan]]-ANT system configuration comes with an operational software that quickly determines and suggests the optimal parameters for the fastest scan. Based on the physical aperture size, height of the probe above the radiating aperture, and desired angular accuracy, scan parameters such as the total scan area and mechanical step resolution are estimated using the near-field scanning theory. The user can always override the default settings and take total control of the operation manually.
The radiation patterns of the AUT are readily computed using a rigorous near-to-far-field transformation without any need for eliminating artifact errors.

The radiation patterns of the AUT are readily computed using a rigorous near-to-far-field transformation without any need for eliminating artifact errors. The figure below shows the total, theta and phi components of the radiation patterns of the microstrip-fed patch antenna measured at 2.349GHz in the principal E and H planes. Besides the 2D Cartesian and polar radiation pattern graphs, the fully polarimetric 3D far field data of the AUT are generated and saved to an ASCII data file, which can be imported to [[EM.Cube]] for visualization, analysis and other purposes.
