Abstract
In this paper, we present two versions of a threshold metric of a loaded reverberation chamber. One metric is based on the chamber quality factor (Q), and the other is based on the volume of the loaded reverberation chamber. These metrics are baseline quantities that must be exceeded in order to have an effective reverberation chamber. We present an application of these metrics for the case of a reverberation chamber loaded with spheres composed of lossy materials.
