Open-ended rectangular waveguides are commonly used as near-field probes in planar near-field and cylindrical near-field antenna measurements. The probe design is based upon standard rectangular waveguides and consequently, the probes can be manufactured for any standard frequency band. The radiation characteristics of OEWG can be well predicted by analytical formulas that facilitate a simplified probe pattern correction.
