*Specifications given according to the following assumptions:
- The standard deviation of the reference data is 0.1dB
- The S11 & the directivity of the reference antenna are the same as those of the AUT
- Absorbers in the anechoic room are AEP-36 from AEMI.
- The given peak gain accuracy values are for 0 dB AUT efficiency
