General

For testing an EUT with respect to immunity to RF intererence in the

requency range rom 80MHz to 6 GHz according to IEC/EN 61000-4-3, the EUT is exposed to a dened radiated electromagnetic eld.

To avoid infuences on the equipment located in the environment and

on the radio services, as well as or reasons o personal saety, this test

should be perormed in RF shielded rooms (anechoic chambers).

Set-up o Test Systems or testing in anechoic chambers.

Block diagram 1 shows the set-up required or the measurement o the uniorm area.

Control sotware

RF-LAB is ully compliant to IEC/EN 61000-4-3, IEC/EN 61000-4-20,

automotive- and MIL standards. The sotware RF-LAB controls the

complete test system and prepares the test report. It perorms measure-ment o the uniorm area and generates reerence calibration data rom

it. In alternative reerence data can be measured directly. Tests may beperormed manually and ully automatically. A ull automatic monitor-

ing o the EUTs unction is possible whenever its compliance can be

monitored with preset tolerance limits. Up to our values can be

monitored and recorded or example by means o multimeters.

Signal generator

A commercial signal generator is used as signal source. It

should cover at least the required requency range such

as 80MHz to 6 GHz and allow amplitude modulation with

a sine wave o 1kHz and 80%, as requested by the stan-dards. Besides, it should meet the requirements regarding

requency step width (1% o the preceding value). I the

equipment oers urther modulation depths and modes, aswell as a higher requency range and smaller steps, this may

be advantageous or uture applications. Minimum require-

ments are as ollows:

Control computer

The controller is a standard PC with operating system Microsot WIN-

DOWS XP/VISTA. Depending on the system layout GPIB (IEEE 488) withNational Instruments interace card, serial bus RS 232, USB and other

bus systems are supported.

In the ollowing, the measuring and testing equipment is described in detail.

RF Power amplifer

The sotware controls the level o the signal genera-

tor output or each test requency. This signal level isamplied by the power amplier output in order to

generate the required eld strength around the EUT. It

depends on the testing set-up, the distance between

EUT and antenna (1m,, 3m), and the test level / testeld strength (1V/m, 3Vm, 10V/m or special require-

ments) whether an amplier output o 10W, 30W,

200W,2kW, is required. Normally, a eld strength

o 10V/m, with 1kHz / 80% AM, can be obtained with

a 200W amplier in a testing distance o 3m.

Power measurement

During testing the eld strength probe is replaced by the EUT. A power measurement during the test

runs assures that the EUT is actually exposed to the requested test conditions. For this purpose, adirectional coupler is connected at the amplier output. A power measuring equipment type PMS

1084 determines the orward- and reverse power up to 6GHz. Both are stored and recorded by thecontrol sotware.

Field strength measurement

A eld strength measuring system consists o an isotropic probe, measuring unit and a bre-opticconverter which is connected to the PC. The system is used or the measurement o the eld homo-geneity o the test set-up.

System Installation into 19 Rack: RIS 3000

On request the test systems are supplied installed

into 19-rack. Picture on the let shows an exampleo a radiated immunity test system acc. to IEC/EN

61000-4-3, type RIS 3000.

Transmitting antenna

The broadband antenna Frankonia BTA-M covers the whole requency range rom 80MHz to 3000MHz.It may be loaded by up to 1000W. Above 1GHz horn antennas or small log-periodical antennas like

our BTA-S save amplier power and costs. The antennas are also suitable or emission measurements.

Reerence data

Reerence data can be determined with two dierent methods: (rom data o homogeneous eld) and .

Calculate Reerence File

Acc. to standard the reerence data o a desired test eld strength shall be calculated rom data measured in the eld homogeneity measurement.

This can simply be done by use o this unction.

Individual Reerence measurement (or individual test set-up)

The sotware supports individual measurement o reerence iles. This may be necessary i an exactly deined test level at a deined

EUT- position or a proile o test level versus requency is requested.

Testing

The testing set-up is described in block diagram2. On the basis othe reerence data (reerence calculation or reerence measure-

ment) determined or the respective testing set-up, the requiredtest level and/or test ield strength is adjusted reproducibly in

the test run by means o the control sotware or each requencystep. For this purpose, the signal is amplitude-modulated with

a sine wave 1kHz / 80%. The veriication o the EUTs unction is

perormed manually (optically) or, i possible, automatically. Inthe latter case the EUTs unction is tested by means o max. 4measuring values with respect to its compliance with preset tol-

erance values. The determined data, the results, a descriptiono the test system as well as a comment regarding the measure-ment are summarized by the sotware in a measuring record.

The output is realized by a printer connected to the PC. The datacan be exported or urther processing in other data processing

programs, e.g. Microsot Word and Microsot Excel.

Homogeneous / Uniorm Field

To assure the reproducibility o the immunity test, the standard prescribes the homogeneity o the eld gener-

ated. The anechoic chamber must guarantee a homogeneous eld within the size 1.5m x 1.5m in a distance

o 1 to 3m rom the transmitting antenna, (e.g. Frankonia type BTA). I a smaller surace is sucient or expos-

ing the EUT and its connection cables to radiation, the homogeneous eld can be reduced to 0.5m x 0.5m. The

lowest part o the homogeneous eld surace is situated at 0.8m above the foor. To assure the correct displayo the eld probe the measurements are perormed without modulation in the empty anechoic chamber. The

homogeneous eld has to be established in 1% steps, starting rom 80MHz up to 6GHz. The requested eld

homogeneity or the respective requency is met, as soon as in 12 measuring points out o 16 (1.5m x 1.5m),or in 4 measuring points out o 4 (0.5m x 0.5m) the dierence between the highest and lowest eld strength

value amounts to 0dB to +6dB. The high requirements regarding eld homogeneity cannot be met by normalRF-shielded cabins (without absorber lining). The sotware uses these data to check the 2dB saturation o the

system as required by the standard.

General:

The CIT-10 is a complete test system or conducted RF- im-

munity tests according to IEC/EN 61000-4-6, ISO 11452-4,

MIL STD 461E/F CS114, SAE-J1113-2, DC 10614 and similar

standards. Its internal RF generator and RF-power-amplier

produce output signals with max. up to 150W within a re-quency range rom 100 (10)kHz up to 400MHz. Generated

signals are measured via one o the max. 3 internal RF-Volt-

meters. Furthermore via an optional, internal directional

coupler orward and refected power can be measured. The

whole test system allows ull automatic tests or the speci-ed requency range. As a stand-alone test system the

CIT-10 is convincing by its easy and comortable handling

and the excellent cost-perormance ratio. Add-ons like

coupling/decoupling devices are available as well.

Applications:

Internal RF-Power-Amplifer

Several ampliier modules are available. Highest output

power can be 150 W over the speciied requency range.The ampliier input can be accessed via the back panel o

the CIT-10, so that the ampliier can also be used with

any external generator. 20W, 75W and 150W ampliiers

are available as standard.

Internal RF-Signal Generator

As the internal generator generates its output signal without anyinternal mixing components, low harmonics and spurious re-

quencies are assured.

Amplitude Modulation

Frequencies generated by the generator can also be modulatedwith a LF signal. Modulation requencies may vary rom 1 Hz up

to 100kHz, modulation levels are available rom 0% to 100%.

Set-up:

The CIT-10 is a PC-controlled test equipment. It can be operated by any commercial IBM compatible PC (WIN/NT/2000/XP/VISTA) via USB port. All

settings o the equipment, e.g. start requency, stop requency, step width, test voltage etc. are made by means o the control sotware whichis also included in the delivery. The three unctional units Signal generator, RF power amplier and RF voltmeter are set automatically by the

sotware, depending on the pre-set test parameters. Each component, however, may also be called and operated as separate measuring and

testing equipment. This means: using the CIT-10 as testing system, you have three ull, additional single units at your disposal, or which

separate inputs and outputs are available as BNC connections. Due to the computer-aided control o the CIT-10, any modications which may

become necessary, or example, due to the revision o standards, may be perormed without problems and without having to manipulate the

hardware o the equipment.

Functioning:

The equipment is ready or operation immediately ater connec-

tion o the USB port, installation o the drivers and the control

sotware. Ater starting o the control sotware, the main menu

oers the manual control o and . Further options in the menu are (, ) and (,

).

Internal RF-Voltmeter

Accurate measurements o RF signals rom -40 dBm up to +30

dBm are done by the internal RF-voltmeter which can be accessed(or separate use) via a BNC connector. Two internal voltmeters

measure the orward and reverse power on an optional available

directional coupler or i no directional coupler is installed, the

output voltage o the amplier is measured.

BCI-Tests with additional Power-Meter

For BCI-Tests the CIT-10 can be equipped with up to 3 piec-

es internal power meters.

User defned signals

External signals (e.g. EUT Fail or external instruments) can be con-

nected and monitored using the application sotware.

CDN-Calibration:

The CDNs (Coupling/Decoupling Networks) serve to inject the

test voltage into the lines to be tested and/or to decouple anyconnected peripheral equipment rom the EUT. The charac-

teristics o the CDNs as well as o the power amplier are not

absolutely linear over the whole requency range, i.e. the

amount o power required to generate a constant test voltageover the whole requency range varies slightly, depending on

the requency. In the calibration run, the requency-depen-

dent output level o the signal generator, which is necessary

or a constant test voltage, will be determined and stored in

the sotware, together with the dened requency range andthe desired test voltage. The data records thus created may

then be stored and recalled or tests.

Sel-Calibration:

When selecting this menu option, the test equipment will per-

orm a sel-calibration. In this case, the output o the signal

generator must be connected to the input o the voltmeter.

Test:

The menu option oers the selection possibilities , and . The settings or a

test, e.g. start and stop requency, step width and test voltageare made automatically via the calibration le o the selected

coupling unit. It is now possible to decide whether the test is

to be perormed exactly according to these pre-settings, i.e.exactly as in the calibration, or whether modications o the

pre-settings shall be admissible. I the calibration run was per-

ormed, or example, or a test voltage o 10V, and the test is to

be perormed now with 3V without having to perorm a new

calibration run or this purpose, this can be done by selectingmenu item .

Is a suitable measuring instrument connected to the specied se-rial port o the CIT-10, EUT can be monitored automatically. Data

are shown graphically. During all test routines the amplier out-put is monitored in a bar display. This guarantees correct tests.

In the case o , a test is perormed over the

complete selected requency range; in this case the test requency is in-

creased by the control sotware according to the selected step width andthe entered dwell time. I there is a malunction o the EUT, the test may

be stopped at any time. It is then possible to either increase or reduce

the requency by any number o steps, as well as to switch on and o

the modulation and test voltage. Besides, a description o the malunc-tion occurred may be entered in a comment line which is included in

the test record.

oers the possibility o testing the EUT at discrete requen-cies. This can be done either with a xed test voltage or, optionally, with

a ramp unction. In case o the ramp unction, the start and stop voltage,

the step width by which the test voltage is to be increased, as well as the

dwell time between the individual steps may be preset by the tester.

The standard consists o the head o the protocol and a dia-

gram which shows the test results. In the head o the protocol the date

and time are taken over rom the computer; in addition, details like

temperature, air humidity, tester, as well as testing set-up and EUT,

may be registered. The protocol may be printed directly. It is also pos-

sible to edit the protocol individually.

Compact Immunity Test System CIT-10Coupling / Decoupling Networks (CDNs)

Description

Immunity tests according to IEC/EN require coupling o RF disturbance voltages into any

conducting cable o an EUT. Furthermore these disturbances should not be coupled intoany urther equipment so that a decoupling path to any auxiliary equipment is provided.

We oer a wide range o CDNs or dierent types o interconnected lines which are ully

calibrated or the requency range rom 150kHz to 230MHz. The ollowing CDNs are avail-

able: M-, AF-, S-, T-, RJ, USB-types. Almost any network can be assembled on customersrequests. Guidance or selecting the appropriate CDN is given in the ollowing table:

1. The test generator (RF-out) shall be connected to the RF-input port o the coupling device via the 6dB-attenuator.2. The EUT port o the coupling device shall be connected in common-mode through the 150 to 50 adaptor to the RF-Voltmeters (calibration).

3. The AE-port shall be loaded in common-mode with a 150 to 50 adaptor, terminated with 50.

With direct injection to screened cable (CDN S types), the 150 load at the AE-port is not required as the screen will be connected to the

ground reerence plane at the AE-port side.

Although the 150 load at the AE-port is mandatory with CDN T, AF and M types calibration data are identical with the AE-port open or

short. This is because a capacitor is connected to ground at the AE-port side, which leads to a RF-short-circuit similar to the CDN S types.This means that even with CDN M, AF and T types the 150 load at the AE-port is not required.

Set-up or level setting at the EUT-port o coupling and decoupling devices:

Electromagnetic Coupling Clamp acc. to IEC/EN 61000-4-6

Direct Injection: Any shielded connection to an EUT can also be connected to the RF disturbance voltage via a direct injection adapter.

Description

The EM coupling clamp is used in all cases where CDNs are

not advisable or not available. The lines to be tested are inthis case inserted in the clamp and the test voltage is inject-

ed inductively. RF electromagnetic elds requently degrade

electronic equipment by generating common mode currentson cables. The eect o these E and H elds on the equip-

ment can be simulated by injecting common mode currents

into the cables o the equipment being tested or RF im-

munity. IEC/EN 61000-4-6 denes the methods or testing

the immunity o electronic equipment to conducted modecurrents between 150kHz and 230MHz. The electromag-

netic (EM) clamp is a high eciency broadband clamp-on

injection device developed to test the immunity o electronicequipment when the standard IEC/EN 61000-4-6 CDN using

the direct capacitive coupling technique is not possible norappropriate. The EM Clamp is oten used to test unshielded

multiple conductor cables.

To calibrate a CDN the ollowing items are required:

adaptor fastening angle 50/150 adaptor

Adapter with BNC jack, specic or each CDN,e.g. with 3 banana plugs or CDN M3

Fasteningangle

50 / 150 Ohm adpter withBNC connectors

ponents allow automatic EMC tests according to automotivestandards where high eld strength need to be generated

or measured.

In combination with our triaxial Helmholtz coils ull au-

tomated susceptibility tests are possible at magnetic eldstrength up to 1000 A/m or requencies rom DC to 1 kHz.

Lower eld strength can be generated or requencies up to

250 kHz. Due to the triaxial set-up o our Helmholtz coil

major improvement in device handling is achieved because

there is no need to turn an EUT during tests.

The MTS-800 complies to all magnetic eld requirements o

relevant EMC and military standards.

Tests and measurements are controlled by a program which

will set most parameter automatically. For any relevant

standard, which are ullled by the MTS-800, limit values

are already included into the sotware package, although

any dierent value can be dened by a user. Ater every testull reports will be created automatically. Report layout is

pre-dened, though any user-dened layout is possible.

High perormance is guaranteed by a sel-calibration processwhich utilizes an internal source as reerence.

Magnetic Field Generation

MTS-800 enables a user to generate strong magnetic ields

up to 1000 A/m. Even alternating ields up to 250 kHz canbe generated by the magnetic test system.

Automotive Testing

Intensive testing is required or new products which should

be used in any automotive application. The MTS-800 al-lows ast and easy testing according to many automotive

standards as described beore.

Components

MTS-800 consists o three independent module: a signal genera-tor(DC250kHz),apoweramplifier(800Woutputmaximum,

DC1MHzbandwidth)andspectrumanalyzer(16Bit,1MSPS

sampling rate). All modules can be used as stand-alone units.

Automatic Testing Capabilities

DC 10614 and similar standards.

Furthermore the MTS-800 allows emission measurements ac-

cording to MIL-STD-461E/F RE101, CE101 and IEC/EN 55103-1.

Sotware

Any unction is controlled via an application sotware which

also guide the user through any test or measurement. Ad-

aptation o signal strength or measurement graphs are pos-

sible at any stage. User dened signals complement the

usage or ast and reliable tests. The application sotwareis written in LabVIEW which guarantees stable and ast per-

ormance on any Microsot Windows platorm.

Accessories

Frankonia provides also many dierent coils and loop sensor which

are ideally suited or the described tests. Any additional equipment

is ready to use without a need or recalibration. Not only our own

equipment can be used with the MTS-800, but also user denedcoils. A calibration mode is included in the sotware to complement

the magnetic test system with any urther equipment.

Sel-calibration

Using an ultra-stable voltage source sel-calibration correction

values are stored in an internal EEPROM. Any voltage signal or

voltage measurement device is calibrated at a sel-calibration

process automatically in about a minute.

Coupling Transormer:

MIL-STD-461E CS 101 requires a coupling transormer or conducted suscep-

tibility tests. We developed a coupling transormer which meets all require-

ments. Due to direct coupling to voltage mains, the coupling transormer

has an additional dierential ampliier or common mode rejection o the AC

mains. Using the coupling transormer without this ampliier can destroy anymeasurement instrument due to overvoltage.
