Abstract :
This paper is devoted to an estimation of electromagnetic field probe calibration error, while the calibration is performed within a waveguide, due to the presence of conducting walls of the waveguide and their influence on the calibrated probe´s transmittance. The presented estimations and measurements are performed for symmetric dipole antennas of different slenderness ratios. However, the approach is applicable to any type of electromagnetic field (EMF) standard and design of field probes
