Patent ID: 6842013

Claim:
A method for making transmission measurements of electromagnetic devices comprising the steps of: (a) positioning the electromagnetic device in an anechoic chamber, (b) selecting a frequency from a plurality of desired frequencies, f 1 , f 2 , . . . , f n , where n is a positive integer; (c) selecting a position from a plurality of desired positions, Tx 1 , Tx 2 , . . . , Tx m , for a transmitter antenna in the anechoic chamber; (d) making a first transmission measurement with the electromagnetic device in the anechoic chamber and making a second transmission measurement without the electromagnetic device at the selected frequency and position; (e) repeating the measuring steps to obtain a plurality of transmission values at all of the desired transmitter antenna positions, Tx 1 , Tx 2 , . . . , Tx m , and at all of the desired frequencies, f 1 , f 2 , . . . , f n ; and (f) spatially averaging the plurality of transmission values.
