Achieving acceptable plane wave uniformity throughout an expanded volume is necessary to conduct scattering measurements on a large target in a controlled environment. An expanded volume is large relative to the size of the nearfield array configuration used to produce plane wave uniformity. The optimum set of shading coefficients for a nearfield array may not produce acceptable plane wave uniformity as the volume and frequency domain are expanded for a given array configuration. Choosing the frequency domain as a single frequency for an optimum set of coefficients will produce plane wave uniformity throughout the largest possible volume for a given array configuration. This study determines the acceptability of uniformity results produced by an optimum set of frequency dependent coefficients throughout an expanded volume for two array configurations that comprise a system for measuring bistatic target strength in the nearfield. Minimizing the frequency domain chosen for an optimum set of coefficients will produce plane wave uniformity for the largest possible volume for a given array configuration. This study determines the acceptability of uniformity results produced by an optimum set of frequency dependent coefficients throughout an optimistic volume for two array configurations that comprise a bi-static array.
