The International Electrotechnical Commission has released IEC 61000-4-22:2010, which considers immunity tests and emission measurements for electric and/or electronic equipment. Only radiated phenomena are considered. It establishes the required test procedures for using fully anechoic rooms for performing radiated immunity testing and radiated emission measurements.This part establishes a common validation procedure, equipment under test (EUT) set-up requirements, and measurement methods for fully anechoic rooms (FARs) when both radiated electromagnetic emission measurements and radiated electromagnetic immunity tests will be performed in the same FAR.As a basic measurement standard, this part of IEC 61000 does not intend to specify the test levels or emission limits to be applied to particular apparatus or system(s). Its main goal is to provide general measurement procedures to all concerned product committees of IEC or CISPR. Specific product requirements and test conditions are defined by the responsible product committees.The methods described in this standard are appropriate for radiated emission measurements and immunity tests in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 18 GHz.Preview the standard from the IEC.
