Abstract :
This paper presents an overview of the capabilities of a small sized commercially available reverberating chamber. Evaluation is based both on experiments and numerical simulations. A number of measurements were carried out with commercial mobile phones and compared to other types of radiation measurement facilities. Taking into account the size and the various parameters of this specific type of chamber, we reach to some interesting conclusions about the usefulness of the chamber
