Mr. Venter,
far from my intention to do polemics,
but I'm a little bit sceptic on the figure
you mention: a couple of db is a number that is far better than the error
capability
of a radiated emission mesaurement.
Moreover often other issue such as the capability
of finding resonance frequencies are also important.

Oggetto: RE: EMC simulation software
Hi
They say that it is not good practise to answer a question
with another
question but in this case it is appropriate. How much money
are you
prepared to spend?
In my opinion after evaluating a number of these software
packages I
would say that there are only two that I have seen that have
good
correlation between simulation data and actual measured
data.
Unfortunately both of these packages, EMC workbench and
Viewlogic, are
priced in the US$90,000 - US$120,000 region. I must however
warn you
that in my study I have realised that the cheap packages,
e.g. US$2000
are very limited and often yield incorrect and unreliable
results. The
above-mentioned packages I have seen in operation and both
yield
simulation results within a couple of dB from the measured
results. I
would therefore recommend one of them. Something apart from
price, that
may sway your decision is you CAD package. The interface
from this
package to the simulation tool might restrict you as to
usable software.
Yours faithfully

I have already mailed this mail to TREG group, and I want
to thank
Rusty,
Jan, and Bechard above all, for their reply.
Hello to EMC-PSTC group!
I have the following info request:
Who can suggest me a reliable EMC simulation tool for
the design of
PCB for
mobile telecom equipments, predicting emissions and,
possibly,
immunity
problems?
In your opinion, is this software really useful for
identify and
correct EMC
problems before doing lab tests according standards?
Thank you for your attention
Giovanni Tribellini
