RF & EMC Lab
Antenna anechoic chamber
This specialized measuring facility, located at the Department of Telecommunications, offers a top antenna anechoic chamber designed for precise measurements in the field of electromagnetic field propagation. The chamber allows testing of radio equipment and measurement of antenna directional characteristics in the frequency range of 700 MHz – 40 GHz. Thanks to special reflection-absorbing surfaces and perfect shielding from external influences, the chamber provides ideal conditions for repeatable and professional measurements.
The facility is funded by the REFRESH project and is available to both academic partners and companies across the Czech Republic.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
The EMC laboratory focuses on pre-certification measurements of EMC parameters of technological devices up to a maximum size of 35 × 40 × 25 cm. In the EMI area, we measure radiated and conducted emissions. In the EMS area, we test the immunity of devices to electromagnetic fields and electrostatic discharges (ESD). We focus on experimental validation of EMC parameters for embedded systems and complex electronic assemblies using specialised measurement facilities, such as the GTEM chamber and LISN.
