  • Abstract
    The authors present methods for improving the reliability of measurements made in a mode-stirred chamber. The combination of improved instrumentation and a larger paddle resulted in measurements that were significantly more reproducible (±1 dB) than previous measurements. They also give a simple model that is capable of describing the characteristics of a mode-stirred chamber at any frequency using only two parameters
