Abstract

We show, by theory and experiment, that the stress put onto the equipment under test (EUT) when performing a radiated susceptibility test (RST) in a reverberation chamber (RC) is not affected by either the directivity pattern or the polarisation pattern of the EUT. The stress put onto the EUT will differ from the stress measured by a reference antenna in the RC. We have developed distribution functions for this discrepancy.
