NearSide

Description: a package for processing antenna near-field data.

Install

Ubuntu:

NearSide uses NumPy so you need to decide if you want to build it yourself with

$ sudo pip install numpy

or download the package with

$ sudo apt-get install python-numpy

I have been building NumPy using the pip method, but it takes a long time.

Once you have NumPy, install NearSide with

$ sudo pip install nearside 

Windows: Make sure you have Numpy on your machine (I recommend using Anaconda), then

$ pip install nearside 

Credits

The algorithms within this package have been implemented, in part, using the documentation within the NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR) - 3955 citation. The majority or the code, however, has been developed using Ronald C. Wittmann's unpublished notes.

Reporting bugs, suggesting features, helping with documentation, and adding to the code is very welcome. See Contributing.
