Abstract
A method of manufacturing an antenna array is described. The method includes: providing several antennas; determining at least one set of quasi-random positions for the antennas based on a predefined algorithm for limiting aliasing effects, wherein the positions are arranged on a manifold having at least one dimension in an irregular manner; and arranging the antennas according to the at least one set of quasi-random positions obtained from the predefined algorithm for limiting aliasing effects. Further, an antenna array and a test system are described.

A method of manufacturing an antenna array, comprising:
- providing several antennas;
- determining at least one set of quasi-random positions for the antennas based on a predefined algorithm for limiting aliasing effects, wherein the positions are arranged on a manifold having at least one dimension in an irregular manner;
- and
- arranging the antennas according to the at least one set of quasi-random positions obtained from the predefined algorithm for limiting aliasing effects.
The method of claim, wherein the antennas are arranged such that the antennas have a common main transmission direction and/or a common main reception direction.
