Are you sure you are reading that correctly. In the radiated portion in a note to the side of the levels it says that the test level is prior to modulation. I believe that is trying to say turn up the levels until 3 v/m measured and once that is done then begin the modulation and start sweeping through the test frequencies. gary

However, the peak envelop power is 5.1 dB higher than the unmodulated carrier level. If you set a signal generator to produce an unmodulated carrier (usually through an amplifier) of 3 V/m and then modulate it 80 %, the generator will still show the same carrier level, but the amplifier will have to produce nearly four times as much power. If you measure the E-Field level with an average (carrier) detector in an EMI meter, the carrier level will not change from unmodulated to modulated. If you use a peak detector, the E-Field level will be 5.1 dB higher.

Does anyone know off-hand the value when the signal is 80% modulated with an AM signal of 1kHz as called for in the same table? Antonio Cinquino CAE Electronics Ltd.
