Hi Ken, A lot of that work is I belive being done at NIST right here in Boulder under the direction of Dr R. Johnk. Some presentations he has made can be downloaded from our website at http://www.ieee.org/rmcemc under "Archives". Search for Johnk.

That'll smear the pulse." My thinking is just the opposite. The duration of the pulse should be long relative to the time it takes to travel from transmit to receive antennas. Then there is no smearing. I also recall work using network analyzers and time windowing to electronically create an anechoic chamber out of an unlined screen room. > From: Cortland Richmond <72146....@compuserve.com> > Date: Sun, 27 Jul 2003 16:44:20 -0400 > To: Ken Javor <ken.ja...@emccompliance.com>, ieee pstc list > <emc-p...@ieee.org> > Subject: Re: pulse modulation in reverb chambers > > Ken, > > A recent article on reverberant chambers mentions a Q of 83,000 or so. > I'd expect a pulse to excite many modes within a chamber as long as > either its length or its transition times are shorter than the time it > takes a wave to travel across the chamber and back.
