The characteristics of an in-orbit test station antenna must be known very accurately in order to carry out accurate satellite in-orbit measurements. This paper describes the antenna measurements of the in-orbit test station antenna which will be used to measure the performance of the Ka-band data relay payload of the Artemis satellite. The key task is to minimise the errors in the antenna cross-polar and gain measurements. The special means to achieve this goal are described in detail
