anechoic chamber
A room whose boundaries absorb effectively all the waves incident on them, thereby providing free-field conditions. A free field is a field whose boundaries exert negligible effect on the incident waves. In practice, it is a field in which the effects of the boundaries are negligible over the frequency range of interest. Acoustic chambers and radio-frequency and microwave chambers will be discussed.
