Dear all: Can anyone tell me about how to meassure/define the radiated disturbances of Microwave-Oven according to CISPR 11 and 19?
In CISPR19: 1983, the substitution method was introduced to measure the effective radiated power per limit for radiated power 57dB(pW) from CISPR 11: 1990 in frequency range 1GHz to 18GHz. But the required radiated disturbances limit for 1GHz to 18GHz in CISPR 11:1997+A!1999 was clearly defined as the electric field strength 70~110 dB(uV/m) mentioned in table 6, 7 of which. The measurement procedures for this two different required limits and units are also different. It is well known that the sustitution method was a complicated procedures, it should use the signal generator and the transmitting horn antenna to replace the Microwave Oven to measure the ERP of which. According to the required limits for field strength given in the 1999 version of CISPR 11, I think that the test time for the Microwave Oven is reduced because the measurement is just for the radiated field strength from the Microwave Oven. It is similiar to tests for ITE, righ? I think that the substitution method for ERP in the frequency range above 1GHz is replaced by directly measuring the radiated disturbances of Microwave Oven for field strength in frequency range clearly defined (1GHz~18GHz). I am not sure that what my thought is right or not because some countries in the world still use the CISPR 11:1990 as their criteria for the Microwave Oven in marketing. Your comments are great helpful for our testing service for our customers. Thanks a lot! Best Regards!!! Yu-Lung Chen Tattung EMC Technology Co.
