6.3.4 Radiation patterns of an antenna
Add, after the last paragraph of this subclause, the following new paragraph:
Annex I introduces a method for antenna pattern measurement in the frequency range above
1 GHz.
Add, after the existing Annex H, the following new Annex I:

CISPR 16-1-6:2014/AMD1:2017 – 3 –

Annex I
(normative)
Antenna pattern measurement method in the frequency
range above 1 GHz, with measurement uncertainty budget
I.1 General
All measurement methods in the CISPR 16 series need an estimation of the measurement
uncertainty. A common approach is to list all contributions and to determine the influence of
each one. This works very well if the uncertainty contributions are independent from the EUT
itself. In case of antenna pattern measurements above 1 GHz uncertainty contributions are
NOT independent from the EUT.
The major uncertainty contributions are:
a) reflections inside the antenna chamber;
b) reflections from the transmit antenna mast and the receive antenna mast;
c) positioning uncertainty of the turntable leading to azimuth drift;
d) alignment of the antennas;
e) reflections between antennas.
All of these contributions are dependent on the antenna pattern to be measured as follows:
1) The nature of the pattern of omnidirectional antennas will lead to stronger reflections from
objects around the antenna and from all surfaces of the anechoic chamber.
2) Coupling with the antenna mast is more significant if omnidirectional antennas or
directional antennas with a strong back lobe are measured.
3) Uncertainty of the turntable positioning can be seen if directional antennas with a high-
gradient antenna pattern are measured.
4) Alignment is more critical if directive antennas are measured.
5) Unwanted coupling between measurement antennas exists if the dimensions of the
antennas are electrically large.
To account for these effects on uncertainty this measurement method includes a statistical
estimation of the measurement uncertainty. The following subclauses describe the set-up and
test method. Because a combined method is used, the problem of separately performing site
validation and antenna mast validation is solved. It is easy for calibration labs to implement,
and the effort is reasonable because the procedure is applied for the following cases:
a) for a new and/or modified chamber and/or turntable;
b) if the receive
