Lead Principal Investigator:

A smart wall containing many dual polarized probes receives the field radiated by an antenna at a distance of about 50 ft. The received voltage from a few probes receiving the strongest fields are used to determine the antenna beam pointing direction and its polarization based on some apriori information on the antenna.
