摘要
A method for operating a TEM cell to determine the characteristics of a radiation source in a circuit. The circuit is placed in the TEM cell such that the relative orientation of the circuit and the TEM cell is measurable. The TEM cell provides an output signal indicative of the energy radiated by the circuit when the circuit is operated in the TEM cell. The output signal of the TEM cell is measured for at least 6 different relative orientations of the circuit and the TEM cell. The electric and magnetic dipole moments of a radiation source having an orientation and physical dimension associated therewith are determined from the measured output signals. The electric and magnetic dipole moments determined from the measured output values are compared to moments predicted by each of a plurality of antenna types to provide an estimate of the orientation of the radiation source relative to the circuit. In addition, embodiments of the present invention may also measure the output signal of the TEM cell as a function of frequency for at least one of the different relative orientations. This information may be used to determine a physical dimension associated with the radiation source. In one embodiment of the present invention, the measured output signal is evaluated as a harmonic series. In another embodiment of the present invention, the output signal of the TEM cell at a predetermined frequency is measured as a function of time to determine the modulation of the output signal.
