Tapered Anechoic Chamber Solutions from Cuming Lehman Chambers
It’s nearly impossible to perform VHF/UHF measurements in a rectangular chamber. In the 1960’s Emerson determined that tapering one end of an anechoic chamber would cause the chamber to act like an indoor ground reflection range. Tapered anechoic chambers are specialized facilities designed to provide a controlled environment for accurate acoustic measurements.
These chambers are essential for various industries and research fields, enabling precise testing and evaluation of sound characteristics without interference from external noise. Tapered anechoic chambers feature walls that gradually change angle, typically from a wider opening to a narrower end. This design helps in reducing sound reflections and controlling the acoustic environment more effectively. The tapered shape can enhance the chamber's ability to absorb sound across a broader frequency range.
