REDUCE TEST TIME, NOT ACCURACY
Every R&S®ESW comes with an FFT-based time domain scan capability.
Measurements that took minutes or hours in sweep mode now take
just seconds. The instrument combines the functions of an EMI test
receiver and a full-featured spectrum analyzer in a single device.

discovered they had incurred lab expenses of approxi-

is that IEC 61000-4-3 requires a 1 kHz, 80% amplitude
modulated signal. This type of modulation increases the
overall amplitude of the signal, if not adjusted as in the
case of other standards. Therefore, this test would need
to be calibrated at 18 V/m, rather than just 10 V/m. This
brings up another key difference between these two test
standards. IEC uses what’s termed a ‘substitution meth-
od’ of testing, where the intended field must be calibrated
prior to running a test. In this case, field probes are not
used during the test. Conversely, MIL-STD-461 allows
the use of field probes to actively measure the field during
testing, negating the need for calibration.

Again, these are examples and the list could go on and

on. The important takeaway here is to ensure that the test Figure 1: Various Power Ratings of a 500 Watt Amplifier

inherent type of distortion to all amplifiers. In EMC test-

ing, it’s important to limit this type of distortion for two key
reasons (among others). One being the repeatability of
a test. RI and CI tests are swept in frequency and equip-
ment under test (EUTs) are tested at a single frequency
at a time, unless you are testing using multi-tone meth-
odology. If the EUT fails and there is a great amount of
harmonic distortion, it may not be clear whether the EUT
failed as a result of the incident fundamental frequency or
from one of its harmonics. A second reason is due to the
prevalence of broadband measurement equipment. In
most cases, EMC tests utilize broadband power meters
to measure amplifier power and broadband field probes Figure 2: Measured Field Strength at 1 Meter.
to measure the generated electric field. These types of
devices are not frequency-selective and therefore cannot
differentiate between a fundamental and harmonic sig-
nal. Additionally, if the EUT is a broadband device it may
also fail as a result of the total spectrum power, including
the fundamental and harmonics, rather than failing from
any single signal.

Lastly, we’ll briefly discuss mismatch tolerance. Mis-

match tolerance is the ability of an amplifier to handle
unmatched loads, and thus varying amounts of reflect-
ed power. In EMC applications, especially at lower fre-
quencies, transducers (antennas/clamps/etc.) can be
a very poor match to 50 Ohms (typical nominal output

Similar to amplifiers, antennas have many specification further. Some antenna manufacturers will specify just a

The first, and possibly most important, parameter to
consider is the measured field strength of an antenna.
This is empirical data of electric field strength produced
by a given input power. This is highly useful for deter-
mining amp/antenna combinations for target immunity
field strengths. Again, it’s very important to size the amp
with margin (6 dB is good target, 3 dB minimum) as
non-free space conditions can contribute considerable
loss (not just cables!). Measured data can be scaled for
other power inputs. Also, the measured field is typically
lowest at the lowest operable frequency, correspond-
ing to the lowest antenna gain. Keep in mind that test
distance greatly affects field strength. Figures 2 and 3
show the measured field strength of a horn antenna at
both 1 meter and 3 meter test distances. The difference
caused by gain is apparent. Figure 4: Antenna Power Handling.

2022 CONSOLIDATED STANDARDS

MANY IEC STANDARDS have been adopted by the European Union with an EN designation replacing the IEC while
maintaining the same number. In several cases, the standard may have been modified. When using an IEC standard, one
should check for IEC – EN differences and in both cases check for the current edition.

The standards list adds a category column to help assign the identified standard to a particular type or discipline. Most are
self-explanatory, but to avoid confusion the category assignments follow. Often a particular standard could fit in more than
one category, so the assignment is simply a judgment call.

• Apparatus – this category is used to group standards for a product or device where it fails to fit in a specific group. For
example, a medical device could be a product but it fits into the medical category more closely.
• Auto/Vehicle – standard primarily deals with automotive but includes ship or rail.
• General – primarily deals with definitive or general EM control information.
• Generic – deals with product standards not assigned to a particular group.
• Medical – medical equipment or methods
• MIL/Aero – MIL-STD, Space, Aeronautical equipment, or methods – includes associated design guides.
• Test – primarily deals with test methods
• Wireless – primarily deals with intentional RF emitters or receivers.
