10m is the standard, but other distances are allowed. If there is ever a problem, data taken at 10 m will be used to judge your equipment. As a practical matter, we test our equipment at 3m because of ambients. My recommendation is to test at 10 m unless there are circumstances that prevent it or complicate the measurements. If there are strong ambients, a test at 10m may take longer which would translate into cost. You can always test at 3m and then retest signals with minimal margin at 10m. ---------- From: robert.m...@engineers.com To: emc-p...@ieee.org Subject: Distance of Measurements List-Post: emc-pstc@listserv.ieee.org Date: Wednesday, June 11, 1997 4:11PM
For measuring emissions per CISPR 22B what is the proper distance for the placement of the antenna? Is it 3m? or 10m? [I'm running across reputable labs that claim there is nothing wrong with measuring everything at 3m, just like FCC B.] - Robert - robert.m...@engineers.com AJM Electronics --- ~ OLX 2.1 TD ~ You'd be surprised how much it costs to look this cheap.
