Evaluation of Measurement Uncertainty of Radiated EMC Tests in Arbitrary Field Generators using Surface Currents on DUT 1Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt, AG 2.21, Bundesallee 100, 38116 Braunschweig, Germany 2Institut für Elektromagnetische Verträglichkeit, Technische Universität Braunschweig, Schleinitzstraße 23, 38106 Abstract. We present a method for the evaluation of measurement uncertainty in radiated EMC tests. It is based on the measurement of surface current densities on a sphere, the results are compared to the surface current distribution on a sphere in a free-space environment obtained by numerical calculations. The free-space is considered to be a reference field generator. By this method we avoid burdening any systematic deviations of one particular (historic) method to any of the others. We evaluate the ratio J/E of the measured surface current density J and the measured empty electrical field strength E for both the reverberation chamber and the semi-anechoic chamber.
