Abstract :
The characteristic features of a tapered anechoic chamber are described. The smooth illumination amplitude in the chamber makes it usable as an indoor range for antenna pattern measurements, even at low frequencies. Variations in the transmission attenuation in the chamber as compared to free space require careful interpretation of absolute gain and cross section data.
