ADVANCED ANTENNA, OTA AND MICROWAVE TEST ENVIRONMENTS

Near-field, far-field, CATR, MIMO OTA, reverberation and satellite test chambers, designed by the team that runs its own accredited CATR.

ALVEX CATR · Bengaluru
Quiet zone 1.5 m
1.49 GHz to 24 GHz
5G FR1 and FR3
ISO/IEC 17025:2017

OVERVIEW

Aracion supplies planar, cylindrical and spherical near-field systems alongside direct far-field chambers and compact ranges. Each is engineered around antenna size, operating frequency, polarisation, scan requirements and target measurement uncertainty.

Our own Bengaluru CATR (11.5 × 5.5 × 5.5 m, 3.3 m offset reflector, 1.5 m quiet zone, 1.49 to 24 GHz) is the reference design. Customer builds extend to FR2 and beyond. Reverberation systems complement the CATR with fast transmitter validation for TRP, ACLR and spurious emissions.
