In the fields of electromagnetic interference and electromagnetic compatibility, it is important to measure the strength of the electric field originating from electric devices. Knowledge of the antenna factor of a receiving antenna is necessary. In this paper, we discuss the antenna impedance method as a new calibration method measuring the free-space antenna factor. The experimental measurements are compared with both the standard field method and the data provided by the manufacturer of biconical, log-periodic and horn antennas. A good agreement with the technical regulation ANSI C63.5.

Abstract
In the fields of electromagnetic interference and electromagnetic compatibility, it is important to measure the strength of the electric field originating from electric devices. Knowledge of the antenna factor of a receiving antenna is necessary. In this paper, we discuss the antenna impedance method as a new calibration method measuring the free-space antenna factor. The experimental measurements are compared with both the standard field method and the data provided by the manufacturer of biconical, log-periodic and horn antennas. A good agreement with the technical regulation ANSI C63.5.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
