We present methods to automate AUT-probe alignment on a robotic antenna range using iterative fitting methods. Data collected during pose refinement is used to
Robots excel at manipulating objects with 6 degree of freedom movement. A combination of well-defined kinematics, optimized control loops, and robust mechanical
After a five-year renovation of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Boulder, CO, antenna measurement facility, the Antenna On-Axis Gain

A SI-traceable Rydberg atom radiofrequency power meter determines power of reference radiofrequency radiation and includes: a reference radiofrequency source that provides reference radiofrequency radiation; a vapor cell including: a pair of parallel-plate waveguides; a vapor cell wall including
A non-contact coordinate measuring machine includes: a noncontact metrology probe including: first and second cameras, wherein the second camera has a second field of view that overlaps a first field of view in a prime focal volume; a third camera has a third field of view that overlaps the prime
A quantum atomic receiving antenna includes: a probe laser; a coupling laser; an atomic vapor cell that includes: a spherically shaped or parallelepiped-shaped atomic vapor space and Rydberg antenna atoms. These undergo a radiofrequency Rydberg transition to produce quantum antenna light from probe
