Abstract. In the present work, the determination of the magnetic behavior of localized magnetic sources from near-field measurements is examined. The distance power law of the magnetic field fall-off is used in various cases to accurately predict the magnetic signature of an equipment under test (EUT) consisting of multiple alternating current (AC) magnetic sources. Therefore, parameters concerning the location of the observation points (magnetometers) are studied towards this scope. The results clearly show that these parameters are independent of the EUT's size and layout. Additionally, the techniques developed in the present study enable the placing of the magnetometers close to the EUT, thus achieving high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Finally, the proposed method is verified by real measurements, using a mobile phone as an EUT.

The aim of this work is to get far field radiation patterns for any radiating source from transient acquisition, in a large frequency range. An outdoor transient Ultra-Wideband near-field measurement base will be installed, a single time pulse radiated by the source will cover the desired spectrum, and the accurate determination of far field radiations will be accomplished by means of cylindrical waves' modal development. This method uses simplified test equipments, easy to be installed, and it reduces measurement costs.
