Senior Advisor Report

The IEEE AP-S, AMTA and EurAAP continue their collaboration on a revision to the IEEE Standard 149-1979: Standard test Procedures for Antennas.  This standard was last revised in 1979 and is considerably out of date.  Both compact ranges and near-field ranges were in their infancy when the standard was last revised; the last revision has only a few paragraphs on each of these topics.  Hence, the reason for this much needed update.   A working group (chaired by Jeff Fordham and co-chaired by Lars Foged) has been established to revise this standard.  A rough preliminary outline for a revision was presented at the IEEE AP-S Antennas and Propagation Standards Committee in Vancouver in July. The next meeting of the working group will take place during the AMTA Symposium in Long Beach on Tuesday evening October 13th.  See the final program for additional details.  Anyone interested in this standard is invited to attend.
