Measurements of Antenna Parameters in GTEM Cell

The paper presents the method for measuring parameters (gain, antenna factor, impedance and radiation pattern) of small antennas in GTEM cell, which is a novel method and environment for antenna measurements. In order to investigate the suitability of GTEM cell for this kind of measurement, the measurement results for a biconical dipole, microstrip patch antennas and small loop antenna were com...

GTEM Cell Experimental Set up for In Vitro Dosimetry

A GTEM cell, suitable for assessing possible biological effects induced on cell samples by electromagnetic fields at the typical frequencies of GSM mobile phones, has been designed and set up. Basic environmental requirements for in-vitro biological experiments, involving a GTEM cell, have been assessed by controlling the electromagnetic field distribution and survival conditions. The GTEM cell...

Antenna Calibration Methods for Antenna Factor Measurements

In the fields of electromagnetic interference and electromagnetic compatibility, it is important to measure the strength of the electric field originating from electric devices. For this purpose, knowledge of the antenna factor of a receiving antenna is necessary. According to international standards, the accurate measurement of the antenna factor involves the use of calibration test sites char...

Antenna Range Measurements

The antenna range is set up for antenna ratiometry 1 so that two paths are constantly being compared, both originating from a common transmitting antenna. These two paths are called "reference" and "measurement." The reference path uses a fixed antenna that receives what should be a constant level; in reality, there are continuous small fluctuations in received signal at microwave frequencies e...
