This paper examines the use of measurements of the total radiated power from an arbitrary source, combined with theory-based estimates of directivity or quality factor, to accurately predict the maximum electric field radiated by the source either at a line-of-sight distance or in a resonant volume. The approach using total radiated power avoids source rotations during testing and is an efficient alternative to current emission test methods. Examples of simulated (random source set) and measured (box with holes) planar-cut radiation-patterns for electrically large sources are presented. Both simulated and measured data agree well with theoretical estimates.
