    Abstract: A signal converting apparatus includes a comparing device, a first digital-slope quantizer, and a second digital-slope quantizer. The comparing device having a first input terminal and a second input terminal for receiving a first received signal and a second received signal, and for generating an output signal at an output port. The first digital-slope quantizer generates a first set of digital signals to monotonically adjust the first received signal and the second received signal at the first input terminal and the second input terminal during a first phase according to a first quantization unit. The second digital-slope quantizer generates a second set of digital signals to monotonically adjust the first received signal and the second received signal at the first input terminal and the second input terminal during a second phase after the first phase according to a second quantization unit.

    Abstract: A near-field testing apparatus for testing a device under test having an array of transmitter antennas is provided. The near-field testing apparatus includes a frame structure and a receiver circuit. The frame structure defines an array of grid sections, and is arranged for receiving the array of transmitter antennas at a first side of the array of grid sections. A periphery of each grid section at the first side surrounds a plurality of transmitter antennas in the array of transmitter antennas. The grid section is arranged to guide respective electromagnetic signals emitted by the transmitter antennas from the first side to a second side of the array of grid sections. The receiver circuit, disposed at the second side of the array of grid sections, is arranged to couple the electromagnetic signals out of the grid section.
