Compact FAR
For small antennas and IoT.
Fully Anechoic Chamber (FAR)
We build fully anechoic chambers with absorbers on every surface, including the floor, providing a reflection-free measurement environment.
- Absorbers on all surfaces, no reflections
- Suited to antenna and wireless measurements
- Absorber selection by frequency

What is a fully anechoic chamber (FAR)?
Free Space Within Four Walls
In a fully anechoic chamber all surfaces, including the floor, are covered with absorbers. With no reflections from any surface, the device is measured as if suspended in empty space.
Antenna gain, pattern performance and the over-the-air performance of wireless devices are measured in these chambers. Absorbers are chosen for the frequencies to be measured.
No Reflections
Measurement is as if in free space.
Broadband
Low to high frequency.
Repeatable
Every measurement gives the same result.
Flexible Use
Antenna and device testing together.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Fully Anechoic Chambers (FAR)
If your question isn't answered here, ask our engineer directly.
How is it different from a semi-anechoic chamber?
In a semi-anechoic chamber the floor is reflective. In a fully anechoic chamber the floor is also covered with absorbers and there are no reflections at all.
What determines the chamber size?
The lowest frequency to be measured and the antenna size; lower frequencies need a larger chamber and absorbers.
Can it be used for EMC testing?
It suits some emission tests. Most standard EMC tests are done in a semi-anechoic chamber.
Do you also install the measurement system?
We plan the positioner, antenna mast and cable penetrations together with the chamber.
