Numerical Derivation of Design Guidelines for Tightness and Shaking Amplitude of Vibrating Intrinsic Reverberation Chamber by Method of Moment

Abstract

Vibrating intrinsic reverberation chamber is being used as an in-situ EMC test equipment for large and complex systems such as automobiles and aircrafts. In this paper, the stirring conditions, such as tightness and shaking amplitude of the walls, of a vibrating intrinsic reverberation chamber have been analyzed using the method of moments. From the viewpoint of quantitative evaluation of the flexible moving walls configuration, it was found that the random electromagnetic environment can be generated under the stirring conditions of loose configuration and a shaking amplitude more than one eighth of the wavelength at the test frequency above the lowest usable frequency.
