  • Publication number: 20240110962
    Abstract: A computer-readable medium capable of estimating a distribution of an electromagnetic field intensity of radiant interference waves on a virtual surface surrounding a test piece with high accuracy while inhibiting an increase of a time required for a radiant interference wave test for radiant interference waves having a frequency included in a wider frequency band is provided. A computer-readable medium storing instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to execute a first calculation step of calculating an upper limit value of a measurement interval of radiant interference waves using an antenna based on positions of a plurality of electromagnetic wave sources according to a test piece radiating the radiant interference waves and a relative positional relation between the antenna measuring the radiant interference waves and the test piece.
