Verification of fields applied to an EUT in a reverberation chamber using numerical modeling

A method of moments model is used to predict the received power of monopole antennas located on the wall of a reverberation chamber. The predicted values for monopole antennas of lengths 4, 8, and 16 cm are compared to measured values over the frequency range 1.0-3.0 GHz. The only chamber dependent parameter used in the numerical model is the average value of the reverberation chamber field measured at a point several wavelengths from the location of the antennas.
