  • Patent number: 9476925
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for electromagnetically testing an object, a method in which electromagnetic radiation is directed by a probe in a predetermined main aiming direction toward a predetermined test point at which the object is located. The invention is characterized in that the probe and a stand for the object are moved relative to one another by a mechanical moving device according to a movement representative of a predetermined angular spread statistic relative to the main aiming direction, in order to generate, by means of the probe, electromagnetic radiation having said predetermined angular spread statistic relative to the main aiming direction.

  • Patent number: 9267967
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the electromagnetic testing of an object, comprising a network of electromagnetic probes, a structure for supporting the network of probes and a support for supporting the object being tested. According to the invention, the structure is closed in the three dimensions of space all around the support for the object being tested by at least one conductive wall forming a Faraday cage which is fitted on its inner side by anechoic electromagnetic absorbers located in the intervals between the probes.

  • Publication number: 20130187815
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for electromagnetic testing of an object, a method in which electromagnetic radiation is sent by a probe (2) in a determined principal aiming direction (D) towards a determined test point (40) where the object (OT) is located. The invention is defined in that the probe (2) and a support (104) for the object (OT) are moved relative to each other by a mechanical displacement device (60) according to a movement representative of a predetermined angular spread statistic relative to the principal aiming direction (D) to generate electromagnetic radiation having this predetermined angular spread statistic relative to the principal aiming direction (D) by the probe (2).
