Anechoic chambers
An anechoic chamber is a RF shielded room whose
walls and ceiling have been covered with microwave
absorbers that scatter or absorb so much of the incident
energy that it can simulate free space. The anechoic
chamber is typically used to house the equipment for
performing measurements of antenna radiation patterns,
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and radar cross
section (RCS) measurements. Testing can be conducted
on various electronic devices, vehicles, aircraft, or
spacecraft. Semi anechoic chamber constructions are
designed for radiated emission and immunity testing.
Microwave or antenna test chambers are designed to
perform measurements of antenna characteristics.
Comtest Engineering can design and supply the
following (standard) anechoic chamber solutions:
• Compact (semi / full) anechoic chamber
• Semi anechoic chamber, test distance: 3m, 5m, 10m
• Anechoic chamber for automotive testing
(components / full vehicle)
• Anechoic chamber for MIL-STD / Tempest testing
• Antenna pattern measurement room
• (compact) Antenna test range
Semi anechoic chambers (EMC)
The main purpose of a semi anechoic chamber is to
perform measurements of radio frequency emission
or immunity from electronic products at 3,5 or 10mtr
measurement range length. The combination of the pan-
type 2mm galvanized panel system and the polystyrene
hybrid absorber solution on the walls and ceiling
eliminates unwanted electrical noise and complies with
international emission and immunity test standards.
The semi anechoic chamber is a multi functional
test environment for commercial, military, R&D and
automotive testing.
Features of a typical semi anechoic chamber:
• Full compliance emission test site for frequency
range of 30MHz to 18GHz as per CISPR 16-1-4
• Full compliance immunity test site for frequency
range of 80MHz to 6GHz as per IEC/EN 61000-4-3
• Shielding effectiveness according to EN 50147-1
up to 40GHz
Typical performance of a semi anechoic chamber:
• NSA: +/- 4 dB
• FU: 75% of 16 points comply with +6 dB
requirements
• sVSWR: below 6 dB
Options for a (semi) anechoic chamber:
• An additional RF shielded room can be installed to
house high power RF amplifiers (amplifier room) or
control and test equipment (control room).
• Video and audio monitoring system
• Various fibre optic converter systems for USB and
Ethernet.
• EUT test table
• Various special positioning equipment
