Introduction: What’s GTEM?
• GTEM cell – Giga-Hertz Transverse Electromagnetic cell.• Tapered Coaxial Transmission Line with 50 termination
at both ends.
Introduction: What’s GTEM?
• Designed for use as EMC radiated emission and radiated immunity test facility without impact of the ambient electromagnetic environment.
Introduction: What’s GTEM?
• At the input, a normal 50 coaxial line is physically transformed to a rectangular cross section.
• The cross sectional dimensions are a ratio of 3:2 horizontal to vertical cross sectional dimensions.

Introduction: What’s GTEM?
• The centre conductor – septum, is a flat and wide conductor that will produce a uniform electrical field distribution underneath it which form a test volume for testing the EUT.

Reason for GTEM measurement above 1GHz
• The use of GTEM cell above 1GHz is still novel to product manufacturers.
• Increasing clock speed of computer processors.
• The need to measure the wave structure and to understand potential limitations in the use of the cell at higher frequencies.

Equipment under test (EUT)
• Dummy device that is commissioned resembling typical products.
• Consists of monocone antenna as radiating source mounted on the inside of a metal box.
Equipment under test (EUT)
• Power by a battery operated York EMC Services CGE01 comb generator with 100MHz harmonic spacing.
• Fundamental signal of 100MHz.• Measurable E-field from EUT up to 15GHz.
Equipment under test (EUT)
• Small EUT (SEUT): [ (L:W:H) = 23cm 20cm 11cm ]
