Abstract :
From calibration data of commercial RF-field strength meters (radiation monitors) the state-of-the-art of measurement uncertainty due to anisotropy, non-linearity, range selection, and modulation response is compared to the prototype of a new PTB broadband RF-field sensor showing improved isotropy and frequency response.<>
