Abstract
The Aperture Array Verification System
stimulated extensive test activities towards the development of
the low-frequency instrument (50-350 MHz) of the Square
Kilometer Array. This paper discusses radiation patterns
measurements carried out on a 16-element array prototype with
full digital beam-forming. A micro Unmanned Aerial Vehicle was
adopted as the automatic positioner for the test source.
