[en] This manuscript presents an experimental method to estimate a radiation pattern obtained in a particular echoic environment (for example from in-situ measurements) as if measurements were performed in a given anechoic chamber. The correction is achieved using some reference measurements collected both in echoic and anechoic environments. An angular transfer function is estimated from these two sets of measurements and deconvolved from the measured radiation pattern to be corrected.
