Anisotropy & polarization analysis in a cubic mode-stirred chamber

Summary form only given. Anisotropy and polarization are two important aspects of stochastic field generation in reverberation chambers. Yet they are seldom directly measured but rather indirectly demonstrated from field homogeneity and CDF validation. In this paper, anisotropy and random polarization are experimentally addressed in a small cubic mode stirred chamber by means of field anisotropy and cross-correlation coefficients. Those are directly calculated from field component measurements carried out in the frequency band of 900 MHz - 2.5 GHz by means of a broadband triaxial E-field probe. The effect of cavity wall proximity on polarization is also demonstrated
