An anechoic chamber is a "special room" used to test the performance and safety of wireless devices. In a regular room, invisible waves from smartphones, Wi-Fi, and televisions are present, making it impossible to conduct accurate tests on devices. Therefore, an anechoic chamber is a special space that "completely shuts out external waves" and also ensures that "waves inside do not leak outside." When is it used? - Testing and inspection of wireless devices - Testing for obtaining technical standard conformity certification (Giteki) - Confirming that there is no interference from waves to other devices In other words, it is "an essential place for creating accurate and reliable wireless devices." What is the inside of the room like? - The walls, ceiling, and floor are covered with "sponge-like materials that absorb waves (wave-absorbing panels)." - The entire room is covered with a metal shield to prevent external waves from entering. Why is it so important? Wireless devices can significantly impact medical equipment, airplanes, and fire department radios, depending on where they are used. That is why it is crucial to thoroughly verify that they emit waves correctly and safely in a place free from external influences, which is the anechoic chamber.
