The following is a basic overview of radiated
tests. There are a number of different standards,
each that have specific test configurations and
methods. Most radiated tests are performed in
an anechoic chamber or in an open area, where
the size of the testing area and the position of
the test apparatus may differ from each
standard.
An example of a possible setup is shown below.
Place the DUT and antenna on a grounding
plane. Arrange the DUT on a raised non-
conducting platform and position the antenna 3
or 10 meters from the DUT. Set the antenna
height as specified in the applicable standard.
Arrange the antenna once in the horizontal
position and once in the vertical position.
Rotate the DUT 45º after each test.
