The 10 Factors You Need to Consider When Selecting an EMC Antenna

The 10 Factors You Need to Consider When Selecting an EMC Antenna," is an essential guide for choosing the right antenna for EMC testing. The factors range from practical logistics—ensuring the antenna fits in the chamber, safe two-man lifting, and planning for portability or outdoor use—to crucial technical details. Key considerations include maintaining calibration validity with VSWR checks, fixing imbalance with ferrite chokes, and deciding between a dedicated emissions (receive) or susceptibility (immunity) antenna. Critically, if emissions signals are weak, a preamplifier must be placed before the cable; above all, always check the compliance standard first, as it often strictly stipulates the required antenna type.
