EMISSION TEST:
RADIATED EMISSIONS
This test assessses the ability of ancilliary equipment to limit their internal noise from being radiated from the enclosure.
According to EMC basic standard(EN 55022)
Measurement according to EMC basic standard, but performed in the anechoic chamber with a reduced measuring distance of
3m. The reduction of the measuring distance and the existing floor absorber are corrected with the chamber factor (Method
Dr. Garn, Austrian Research Centre, Seibersdorf). The test results of the anechoic chamber correspond to the 10m-OATS
results
Test setup
EUT was setup in an anechoic chamber
