  • Abstract
    Three methods of determining an antenna´s efficiency are compared to measure the efficiency of three different antennas (two monopole antennas with attenuator and surface mount resistor, and modified folded monopole patch antenna). The purpose of this paper is to show that how the antenna efficiency can be measured accurately and comparable in reverberation chamber, traditional wheeler cap method and simulation from EDA tool.
