Experimental research on immunity test method using reverberation chamber and relevance with other platform

This paper presents a investigated the radiated immunity test method using a reverberation chamber and the relevant properties compared with GTEM cell method. A new method is presented, based on the definition of the susceptibility threshold, by using the average value received by antenna in a complete rotation of stirrers. This method is very simple to be applied and presents a high repeatability. An important result for radiated susceptibility test is that the average value of antenna received in all independent stirrer positions and the maximum value in all independent stirrer positions have the similar trends. However, considering the comparison with stirred mode, the results of tuned mode are the average value taken over all independent stirrer positions. This paper also considered the comparison between reverberation chamber and GTEM chamber measurements.
