A calibration procedure for reverberation chambers

This paper documents a calibration procedure for reverberation chambers. The method described was developed as part of an ongoing effort to introduce reverberation chambers into military and commercial standards. This work was conducted in cooperation with both industry and standards organizations. The effort described herein is intended to provide an accurate and economic methodology for calibrating reverberation chambers. The methodology was initially developed and evaluated at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division. Follow-on evaluations were conducted at facilities owned and operated commercially.
