Differential site attenuation (DSA) to verify the performance of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) facilities, open area test site and semi‐anechoic chamber, without using a calibrated free space antenna factor (AF FS ) is proposed. In the evaluation of EMC facilities, the AF FS is one of the main uncertainty contributions. The measured results are reported and compared with the current site attenuations. It is shown that the proposed DSA has good discrimination capability in verifying the performance of EMC facilities.
