Broadband Space-Time Measurements in Reverberation Chamber Including Comparison With Real Environment

• Spatial variations of the broadband time-domain impulse response in a reverberation chamber are studied experimentally. The goal is to introduce the technique as a means for characterizing reverberation chambers and to demonstrate typical results and the information that can be extracted. Similar measurements are performed in a lab room for comparison. The results provide new insights regarding the signal environment inside a reverberation chamber and how it compares to real-life environments. The minimum number of signal paths in the chamber is calculated based on the spatial and temporal resolutions used in the characterization.
