ABSTRACT:
An antenna tester has a signal generator that produces a test signal applied to the antenna and a reference signal; the test signal and reference signals having a shared noise modulated characteristic; a circuit for detecting a reflected test signal from the antenna in response to the test signal; and a demodulator circuit for demodulating the reflected test signal and reference signal based on the noise characteristic to produce first and second output signals; the first and second output signals having detectable characteristics related to the antenna impedance characteristics.
