Abstract :
A simple method for estimating the mode-stirring efficiency in a reverberation chamber is presented. It is shown that estimating the Rician K-factor is more relevant in looking for optimal Rayleigh stirring conditions than using goodness-of-fit tests. Good agreement is reported between simulations and experiments.
