Use of Correlation Matrix to Assess the Stirring Performance of a   Reverberation Chamber: a Comparative Study
  The use of correlation matrices to evaluate the number of uncorrelated stirrer positions of reverberation chamber has widespread applications in electromagnetic compatibility. We present a comparative study of recent techniques based on multivariate correlation functions aimed at relating space-frequency inhomogeneities/anisotropies to the reduction of uncorrelated positions. Full wave finite-difference time domain simulations of an actual reverberation chamber are performed through an in-house parallel code. The efficiency of this code enables for capturing extensive inhomogeneous/anisotropic spatial volumes (frequency ranges). The concept of threshold crossing is revised under the light of random field sampling, which is important to the performance of arbitrary reverberation chambers.
