The use of radiothermal emission for measuring antenna parameters provides the possibility of avoiding the use of special sources by replacing them with heated bodies.
The work describes the procedure and presents the results of an experiment in measuring the efficiency and scattering factor of the directivity pattern (DP) of large and small reflector antennas using radiothermal emission of millimeter waves.
