http://www.ieee-pses.org/symposium http://www.emc2004.org/ -------------------------------------------------- Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen (well morning for me anyway I guess it depends on where you are!),
I have a friend that is questioning his measurements for Radiated Emissions per CISPR 25 Method in his lab. Certain OEM's require us to measure Peak, QP, and Average all at once. The results he shows are Peak being the highest measurement, then Quasi-Peak, with Average being the lowest. I explained to him this is the same type of results I obtain in my lab and I am an accredited and correlated lab! Regardless of my explanations he is still not sure, I figured somebody on this list can help give a very clear explanation. I basically told him that in my experience and knowledge that for Narrowband Measurements the three should be very close to the same. In broadband the general rule I remember is; Peak is the highest measurement Peak - 6dB = average measurement If someone could provide a better explanation to how the three types of measurements compare I would appreciate it, this is why I became an engineer and not a teacher! Thank you in advance.
