This International Standard refers specifically to the antennas and ancillary equipment used in the mobile services.
This standard is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 60489-1.
The supplementary terms and definitions and the conditions of measurement set forth in this standard are intended for type tests and may also be used for acceptable tests.
Defines terms and conditions of measurement to ascertain the performance of antennas and allow the comparison of the results of measurements made by different observers on different equipment.
