Abstract

This work evaluates the reverberation chamber methodology proposed for radiated emissions testing in the IEC draft standard 61000-4-21. Testing was conducted using a reference radiator system. Evaluations of the reference radiator were accomplished using in-band antennas. The results were compared to the measured output power of the reference radiator connected directly to a spectrum analyzer
