using the LabView software. Two servo motors control theantenna positioner. One servo motor rotates the antenna mast from 0 to 180 degrees (illustratedin Fig. 2 by the white arrows) at defined step sizes and the second servo rotates the plate at thetop of the antenna mast from 0 degrees to 90 degrees in one step. In summary, the motions ofthe antenna positioner during a measurement are as follows: 1) the bottom servo rotates the mastfrom 0 degrees to 180 degrees at step sizes defined by the user; 2) when the mast is rotated to180 degrees, the second servo rotates the antenna plate at the top of the mast 90 degrees in onestep; 3) then the servo at the bottom of the mast rotates the mast back from 180 degrees to 0degrees at the step sizes defined
