Abstract

An electromagnetic field measurement probe for measuring an electromagnetic field and providing a corresponding measurement signal to a measurement output. The electromagnetic field measurement probe comprises an antenna arrangement for detecting the electromagnetic field and producing a corresponding electrical output, and an output connector arrangement connected to the antenna arrangement for providing the corresponding electrical output to the measurement output of the probe. The output connector arrangement includes a lead structure comprising a dielectric having opposing faces on opposite sides thereof, and high resistivity lead material disposed on the opposing faces. The probe further comprises a diode rectifier disposed between and connecting two antenna elements forming the antenna arrangement, as well as two output connector bonding pads, each being electrically connected to the high resistivity material disposed on respective ones of the two opposing faces of the dielectric.
