Abstract :
Loop-antenna calibration is discussed in this tutorial. Loop antennas are especially used in low-frequency radiated-emission (RE) and radiated-susceptibility (RS) measurements and tests. These are important in commercial systems, but critical in military systems. The standards used for this purpose are reviewed, and comparisons among them are made. Results are presented with commercial as well as home-made loop antennas.
