Specification for radio disturbance and immunity measuring apparatus and methods -- Part 1-1: Radio disturbance and immunity measuring apparatus - Measuring apparatus

This part of CISPR 16 is designated a basic standard, which specifies the characteristics and performance of equipment for the measurement of radio disturbance voltages, currents and fields in the frequency range 9 kHz to 18 GHz. In addition, requirements are specified for specialized equipment for discontinuous disturbance measurements. The requirements include the measurement of broadband and narrowband types of radio disturbance. The receiver types covered include the following: a) the quasi-peak measuring receiver, b) the peak measuring receiver, c) the average measuring receiver, d) the r.m.s. measuring receiver. In addition there are specifications for spectrum analyzers, scanning receivers and audio-frequency voltmeters. The requirements of this publication shall be complied with at all frequencies and for all levels of radio disturbance voltages, currents, power or field strengths within the CISPR indicating range of the measuring equipment. CISPR 16-1 has been reorganised into 5 parts, to accommodate growth and easier maintenance.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purpose of this document, the following definitions apply. Also see IEC 60050(161)
and the International vocabulary of basic and general terms in metrology.
3.1
bandwidth
B
n
the width of the overall selectivity curve of the receiver between two points at a stated
attenuation, below the midband response. The bandwidth is represented by the symbol B ,
n
where n is the stated attenuation in decibels.
3.2
impulse bandwidth
B
imp
B = A(t) / (2 G × IS)
imp max o
where
is the peak of the envelope at the IF output of the receiver with an impulse area IS
A(t)
max
applied at the receiver input;
G is the gain of the circuit at the centre frequency.
o
Specifically for two critically-coupled tuned transformers,
B = 1,05 × B = 1,31 × B
imp 6 3
where
B and B are respectively the bandwidths at the –6 dB and –3 dB points (see Clause A.2 for
6 3
further information).
3.3
impulse area
IS
the impulse area (sometimes called impulse strength, IS) is the voltage-time area of a pulse
defined by the integral:
+∞
IS = V d(t) t (expressed in μVs or dB(μVs))

−∞
NOTE Spectral density (D) is related to impulse area and expressed in μV/MHz or dB(μV/MHz). For rectangular
6
impulses of pulse duration T at frequencies f << 1/T, the relationship D (μV/MHz) = 2 ×10 IS (μVs) applies.
3.4
electrical charge time constant
T
C
the time needed after the instantaneous application of a constant sine-wave voltage to the
stage immediately preceding the input of the detector for the output voltage of the detector to
reach 63 % of its final value

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------

CISPR 16-1-1 © IEC:2006+A1:2006 – 15 –
NOTE This time constant is determined as follows: A sine-wave signal of constant amplitude and having a
frequency equal to the mid-band frequency of the i.f. amplifier is applied to the input of the stage immediately
preceding the detector. The indication, D, of an instrument having no inertia (e.g., a cathode-ray oscilloscope)
connected to a terminal in the d.c. amplifier circuit so as not to affect the behaviour of the detector, is noted.
The level of the signal is chosen such that the response of the stages concerned remains within the linear
operating range. A sine-wave signal of this level, applied for a limited time only and having a wave train of
rectangular envelope is gated such that the deflection registered is 0,63 D. The duration of this signal is equal to
the charge time of the detector.
3.5
electrical discharge time constant
T
D
the time needed after the instantaneous removal of a constant sine-wave voltage applied to
the stage immediately preceding the input of the detector for the output of the detector to fall
to 37 % of its initial value
NOTE The method of measurement is analogous to that for the charge time constant, but instead of a signal
being applied for a limited time, the signal is interrupted for a definite time. The time taken for the deflection to fall
to 0,37 D is the discharge time constant of the detector.
3.6
mechanical time constant of a critically damped indicating instrument
T
M
T = T / 2π
M L
where
T is the period of free oscillation of the instrument with all damping removed.
L
NOTE 1 For a critically damped instrument, the equation of motion of the system may be written as:
2 2 2
T (d α / dt ) + 2T (dα / dt) + α = ki
M M
where
α is the deflection;
i is the current through the instrument;
k is a constant.
It can be deduced from this relation that this time constant is also equal to the duration of a rectangular pulse (of
constant amplitude) that produces a deflection equal to 35 % of the steady deflection produced by a continuous
current having the same amplitude as that of the rectangular pulse.
NOTE 2 The methods of measurement and adjustment are deduced from one of the following:
a) The period of free oscillation having been adjusted to 2πT , damping is added so that αT = 0,35α .
M max
b) When the period of oscillation cannot be measured, the damping is adjusted to be just below critical such that
the overswing is not greater than 5 % and the moment of inertia of the movement is such that αT = 0,35α .
max
3.7
overload factor
the ratio of the level that corresponds to the range of practical linear function of a circuit (or a
group of circuits) to the level that corresponds to full-scale deflection of the indicating
instrument
The maximum level at which the steady-state response of a circuit (or group of circuits) does
not depart by more than 1 dB from ideal linearity defines the range of practical linear function
of the circuit (or group of circuits).
3.8
symmetric voltage
in a two-wire circuit, such as a single-phase mains supply, the symmetric voltage is the radio-
frequency disturbance voltage appearing between the two wires. This is sometimes called the
differential mode voltage. If Va is the vector voltage between one of the mains terminals and
earth and Vb is the vector voltage between the other mains terminal and earth, the symmetric
voltage is the vector difference (Va-Vb)

3.9
CISPR indicating range
it is the range specified by the manufacturer which gives the maximum and the minimum
meter indications within which the receiver meets the requirements of this section of
CISPR 16
4 Quasi-peak measuring receivers for the frequency range 9 kHz to 1 000 MHz
The receiver specification depends on the frequency of operation. There is one receiver
specification covering the frequency range 9 kHz to 150 kHz (band A), one covering 150 kHz
to 30 MHz (band B), one covering 30 MHz
