Abstract :
In this paper, the authors describe the methods and procedures used to maintain and validate a 10 meter semi-anechoic chamber used for radiated emissions measurements. Included are a list of monthly, semi-annual, annual, and as needed checks and an approach for measurement software/hardware validation. Finally, they discuss a method by which to verify that a semi-anechoic chamber´s measurement system is really performing with accuracy in its measurements.
