Abstract :
The newly developed E-field meter is intended as a transfer instrument between a calibration laboratory and an EMC test facility to measure rf fields that are traceable to national standards. The system is based on a flat miniature E-field sensor and uses software corrections for frequency response, linearity and temperature effects. The calibration procedure with a special “μ-TEM” cell is described and an uncertainty budget is given
