What To Ask When Selecting Antennas For EMC Testing

Choosing the right antennas for EMC testing is crucial. Different antennas have different radiation patterns, frequency ranges, and polarization characteristics. Selecting antennas that accurately represent the intended operational environment of the DUT is essential for accurate testing results.

How To Use Antenna Factors

Antenna factor (AF) is a comparison between the field level presented to the antenna and the actual voltage produced by the antenna at its connector. AF varies with frequency, that is, for the same presented field strength. But at a different frequency, the voltage produced at the connector is not constant.
