This paper presents a procedure for evaluating the performance of reverberation chambers by applying statistical and optimization techniques. The chambers configurations evaluation is based on the trends of geometrical and physical constraints, like the ones related to the internal E-field distribution recommended by standards. The importance of the present work is related to the development of a non-canonical reverberation chamber configuration, whose excitation is carried out by transmission lines, instead of antennas plus paddles and shows the advantages of using free-placed working volumes instead centre-fixed ones.
