Due to the increasing compact setups of electronic devices and systems as well as the decreasing voltage and current levels EMC is of special interest. One of various research topics is the EMC of wireless data transmission systems, whereby the emission as well as the susceptibility represent the focus of the research work. Special robotic systems have been developed realizing a three dimensional scan and investigation of electromagnetic fields of complex antenna structures in order to optimize the gain under consideration of a limitation of the total radiated field.
The applications of these activities can be seen in the improvement of wireless data transmission systems inside of complex arrangements in traffic systems, e.g. automobiles, aircraft and ship, in consideration of EMC.
