A Cost-Effective High-Performance Conducted Emission Test Solution to Comply with MIL-STD-461F/G Standard

Abstract

The TDK’s MIL-STD-461F/G CE102-comp1iant test is a semi-automatic solution using the leading edge standards-compliant MXE EMI test receiver Keysight N9038A and the authorized TDK®Emission Labs 9.68 software package. This however still results in longer measuring time and inferior measuring performance. Hence, a novel fully automatic test scheme in accordance with control software integrating suitable compensation algorithms is proposed to surmount these disadvantages. The proposal though uses less advanced models such as the low-cost X-Series N9000A CXA, or the high-performance X-Series N9030A PXA Keysight signal analyzers yet creates higher measuring performance in a shorter time. The test configuration with related problems are investigated and resolved then the experimental results are presented to compare with that of the TDK’s solution showing the proposal’s advantages.
