I do not believe that the GTEM is a suitable option for testing a PC due to
the size limitations of the GTEM. The GTEM has, for lack of a better term, a
"sweet spot" that the EUT has to occupy for optimum results. Although you
might be able to place your EUT in the GTEM, it would not necessarily be
confined to this "sweet spot." This being the case, the repeatability, and
accuracy of your measurements would be questionable. Another consideration
is the requirement that you have correlation to an OATS. Just my 2-cents
worth.

                Hello, everyone:

                I posted an question several weeks ago asking about GTEM.
Thanks those who
                share with me your experience. I may not address my problem
very clearly
                thus I would like to come back to you one more time.

                We are a R & D orgnization in Singapore mainly dealing with
semiconductor
                industry. Since there are some requirements from our
industry partners in
                the area of EMC design, we are considering setting up some
EMC measurement
                capabilities. At the intial stage, we will only consider
equipment for
                radiated emission/susceptibility testing. Our objective is
to evaluate the
                EMC performance of the product from our customers, being of
PCB level or
                system level. Based on those results, we can help our
customers to improve
                their product EMC design so that their product can pass the
final compliance
                testing. The EUT could be small, such as integrated circuits
on PCB, but it
                can also be large such as a PC. Due to our budget
constraint, I think GTEM
                maybe a good choice. Do you guys agree ? If not, any other
suggestions ?  

                Thanks in advance.

                Best Regards

                Qu Pingyu
