  • Abstract
    The new four stripline TEM cell is a patented, compact, symmetrical TEM device with a fully absorber lined enclosure. Due to the broadband nature, this device family can be used for radiated immunity and emission measurements. The family is scaleable in size and can take test objects (DUT) as big as 2 m high industrial cabinets. The four stripline antenna arrangement of the new TEM cell can also be fitted into fully absorber lined chambers (e.g. 7 m×4 m×3 m), replacing the antennas, the mast and the need for high power amplifiers. In contrast to the 10 years old GTEM technology, polarization can be switched from horizontal to vertical. The DUT is positioned on a turn table as on OATS and in semi-anechoic chambers. There is no need for rotating the DUT through an upside down position like in the GTEM. The four stripline TEM device offers very high field quality and major space and cost savings for a given DUT size over other TEM devices and absorber chambers
