Ed,
Yikes! First thoughts: near-field effects in even a 10 m chamber, especially at the low end of your frequency band; size of an antenna for 1.5 MHz (~100 m long dipole?); how to hook up the amp directly to a power generating station ;-). Any reason why you need radiated susceptibility at such low frequencies, when other products/standards assume that there is little or no coupling of relatively small devices (even 2 m tall ones) to RF waves on the order of 10+ meters long? Will it have very long, exposed external cables? Sounds as if the marketing guys have started writing EMC specs again… Bryce Stammerjohan | Research & Development Engineer Thoratec Corporation | 6035 Stoneridge Drive, Pleasanton, CA 94588 v: 925.738.0042| f: 925.734.4083 | e: bryce.stammerjo...@thoratec.com <mailto:bryce.stammerjo...@thoratec.com> www.thoratec.com ________________________________ From: Price, Edward [mailto:ed.pr...@cubic.com] Sent: Thursday, January 07, 2010 10:43 AM To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: [PSES] High Power RF Exposure Would anyone know of a test lab that could perform E-field radiated susceptibility testing, in the 1.5 MHz to 30 MHz region, at a level of 560 V/M CW? The test specimen is 2 meters tall, so it probably will not fit in a TEM cell. Illuminating antenna distance can be less than one meter. I prefer Southern California, but will consider other places on Earth. Time frame = next week! Thanks in advance.
