Abstract :
The accuracy in reverberation chamber measurements relies on the chamber setup being able to generate a large number of independent measurement samples. Simple models for the number of independent samples with mechanical stirring and frequency stirring are presented, and also with several stirring techniques combined. The models are verified through measurements.
