Abstract :
In this paper, the statistical property of the transmitting antenna reflection inside a reverberation chamber is studied. Furthermore, the normalization methods by using the forward and net power of the transmitting antenna in the chamber calibration are compared. The results show that the fwd-normalization method is accurate enough for the practical engineering application. Further comparison on the accuracy of field uniformity calibration by using the fwd-normalization and net-normalization methods are done
