The Radiation Measurement System (RMS) is a unique turnkey system that measures Radiation Patterns and Total Radiated Power (TRP) through a 3-axis rotation.
The RMS is used for these measurements:
- Radiated output power patterns of a wireless device
- Harmonic radiation patterns (up to 4GHz or 6GHz) of wireless devices
- Gain and radiation patterns of standalone antennas, using the generator option
- Gain over frequency of antennas
- Radiation patterns over frequency of antennas
- Beamwidth and max gain of directional antennas, over frequency
While this is usually measured in an anechoic chamber to avoid reflections to affect the measurement, the RMS has a smart antenna design to reduce the sensitivity for reflections. This allows radiation measurements to be made in relatively small lab or office spaces.
An extensive evaluation at the Philips Innovations Services (PINS) anechoic labs has shown that in a normal environment the RMS can produce results that are comparable with anechoic measurements. The RMS system itself has an accuracy of ±1dB. In a reasonable space one can expect an extra uncertainty of 1dB. The repeatability of measurements is excellent at ±0.5dB.
