Experimental Validation of an Emission Test Method for Source Stirred Reverberation Chamber

This article reports on the experimental validation of a method to predict radiated emissions of equipment under test in a reverberation chamber where the multiple monopole sources stirring technique is implemented. The method is validated for three different case studies: a loop, a slot in a metal enclosure, and a realistic device comprised of the chassis of a power supply for a workstation. The reconstruction of the free space electromagnetic emissions starting from measurements in a reverberation chamber is compared with measurements in an anechoic environment. A statistical analysis of the uncertainty due to a positioning error of the field sample measurement points is also proposed.
