Abstract
The present disclosure involves positioning a plurality of metering devices positioned along a terrestrial medium relative to a Zenneck waveguide probe in order to generate field measurements of the wireless output of such Zenneck waveguide probe. A computing device configures each of the metering devices for operation at an operating frequency. Each of the metering devices generates field measurements over time during the testing of the Zenneck waveguide probe. The field measurements from each of the metering devices are stored in a data store, where the field measurements indicate a wireless signal output of the Zenneck surface waveguide probe. A user interface is generated and rendered on a display that indicates a field strength over distance of the wireless signal output of the Zenneck surface waveguide probe. The metering devices include various components to facilitate taking the field measurements.
