This part of CISPR 16 specifies the requirements for calibration test sites used to perform antenna calibrations and for reference test sites used to measure the antenna-pair reference site attenuation for compliance test site validations. It describes the test antenna characteristics, calibration and reference test site verification procedures and site compliance criteria. Further information on calibration site requirements, test antenna considerations and the theory of antennas and site attenuation is provided in informative annexes.
Measurement instrumentation specifications are given in CISPR 16-1-1 and CISPR 16-1-4. Further information and background on uncertainties in general is given in CISPR 16-4-1, which may be helpful in establishing uncertainty estimates for the calibration processes of antennas.
