MilliBox, a leader in compact benchtop mmWave anechoic chambers and antenna positioners, cooperated with Cornes RF Engineering, a pioneer in antenna and RF measurement solutions in Japan, to create an economical Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR) solution for Ka-Band and V-Band. This original system uses the best of both companies' technologies to create a highly innovative solution for daily antenna radiation pattern capture.
This solution features the compact frame of the MBX02 benchtop chamber from MilliBox, with the interior covered with the ECP-03 wideband pyramidal absorber from Cornes. The 3D antenna positioner is MilliBox’s GIM06, controlled by the advanced multifunction MATEOS.NET software suite from Cornes, compatible with most VNAs on the market. The CATR capability that CRFE brings to this solution is achieved with a proprietary 40cm lens offering a quiet zone of 20cm developed by Cornes RF Engineering.
“This economical CATR solution is a complete blend of expertise that both teams brought to the table to make a unique and innovative proposition to the antenna measurement market,” says Takafumi Senoo, Global Sales Team Manager of Cornes RF Engineering.
This product is featured in a live demonstration in the Cornes RF Engineering booth 11057 at IMS 2026 in Boston this week.
