Passive RF and microwave devices, intermodulation level measurement - Part 2: Measurement of passive intermodulation in coaxial cable assemblies

This part of IEC 62037 defines a procedure to measure levels of passive intermodulation generated by a coaxial cable assembly. This test method is applicable to jumper cables, i.e. cable assemblies intended to provide interface flexibility between rigid devices. It is also used to evaluate cable assemblies that are subjected to motion in operation.

Dispositifs RF et à micro-ondes passifs, mesure du niveau d'intermodulation - Partie 2: Mesure de l'intermodulation passive dans les cordons coaxiaux

IEC 62037-2:2021 définit une procédure pour la mesure des niveaux d’intermodulation passive générés par un cordon coaxial. Cette méthode d’essai s’applique aux jarretières, c’est-à-dire aux cordons destinés à fournir une interface flexible entre des dispositifs rigides. Elle est également utilisée pour évaluer des cordons soumis à des mouvements pendant leur fonctionnement. Cette seconde édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2012. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente: a. révision des critères d’application des contraintes mécaniques pour être fonction du rayon de courbure du câble annoncé.

Pasivne radiofrekvenčne (RF) in mikrovalovne naprave, meritve intermodulacijskega nivoja - 2. del: Meritve pasivne intermodulacije v koaksialnih kabelskih sestavih (IEC 62037-2:2021)

Ta del standarda IEC 62037 določa postopek za merjenje ravni pasivne intermodulacije, ki jo proizvede koaksialni kabelski sestav. Ta preskusna metoda se uporablja za povezovalne vode, tj. kabelske sestave, ki so namenjeni zagotavljanju vmesniške prilagodljivosti med togimi napravami. Uporablja se tudi za vrednotenje kabelskih sestavov, ki se med delovanjem premikajo.
