Hello all,
I am working on generating an efield that I can measure with an antenna. I wanted to see if anyone had any feedback on what I am going to try or any pitfalls I can avoid, or even a better technique.
I am going to build a solenoid to generate the e-field. I was going to use the outer case of a "Dvd" tower since it is large and round and the E-field will be proportional to the area, I'm using thin wire(ripped from an ethernet cable I dont need, one strand out of it) to get a decent number of turns per meter. Does this seem like a decent approach, does anyone know another? Im trying to use a source that I can calculate the approximate field strength I would expect which is why Im not just going to just use electronics. Any input would be apprciated.
Thanks.
