    4. Operation with the Remote Control Switch is done in the same sequence as above. 3.2 Theory of operation TC-5063C Pneumatic 6 GHz TEM Cell is made to work well beyond the typical TEM Cell operating frequency range limited by cell resonance. A typical TEM Cell is a 2-port symmetrical device;...

    E (Volt/meter) = V (Volt) / L (meter) ………………… (1). Here, L is the distance between the septum and the top wall. In TC-5063C, L is 22 (cm). Since TEM Cell produces a TEM wave, an orthogonal H-field (ampere/meter) proportional to E-field exists. They are related by the free space wave impedance H (Ampere/meter) = E (Volt/meter) / 377 (Ohm) ..

    3. Operation <Example> Connect the RF output of a signal generator to the input port of TC-5063C with a cable. Set the signal generator frequency (between 100 MHz to 6 GHz) and the signal level to 220 mV. The E-field developed at the test point inside TC-5063C is then: E = 0.22(V) / 0.22(meter) = 1 (Volt/meter).
