Reminder – ANSI C63.5 – 2006 – Calibration of Antenna for Radiated Emissions Measurement

ANSI C63.5 – 2006 is entitled “American National Standard for Electromagnetic Compatibility – Radiated Emissions Measurements for Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Control – Calibration of Antennas. This standard provides methods for determining antenna factors of antennas used for radiated emission measurements of electromagnetic interference (EMI) from 9 kHz to 40 GHz. Antennas included are linearly polarized antennas, such as loops, rods (monopoles), tuned dipoles, biconical dipoles, log-periodic dipole arrays, hybrid linearly polarized arrays, broadband horns, etc., that are used in measurements governed by ANSI C63.4-2003.1 .  For more information or to purchase this standard, go to the American National Standards Institute website. Testing to international standards can sometimes be problematic. Remember you can always weigh in on the Interference Technology Testing Forum. Try it now!
