A Source Stirred Vibrating Intrinsic Reverberation Chamber Using Two Antennas

This paper describes the design and the realization of a source stirred vibrating intrinsic reverberation chamber. The source stirring is proposed as additional stirring method in order to improve the action of the vibrating wall stirring. It was achieved through two printed board circuit logarithmic-antennas and a single-pole, double-throw coaxial switch. The antennas were located in a small-sized (
$1\ \mathrm{m}\times 1.2\ \mathrm{m} \times 1.5\ \mathrm{m}$
) vibrating reverberation chamber and the analysis of the electromagnetic field and its statistical properties conducted from 200 MHz up to 1 GHz.
