Abstract :
We suggest a novel bivariate normalization (BN) approach to evaluate distributions of electromagnetic fields in reverberation chambers. The BN approach is simpler and more cost effective than the conventional marginal probability density functions (MPDF) method. In our approach, we transform the complicated MPDF into simplified probability density functions using a normalization technique. In addition, we can also present cumulative distribution functions as simple closed forms with no help of any numerical integration. According to the experiment and the goodness-of-fit test, the BN method shows good agreement with the conventional one, which proves accuracy and validity of our proposal.
