Actually the mil-std appendix does exactly what you suggest; the following is excerpted from the discussion for RE102, which controls radiated electric field emissions:
"The basic intent of the requirement is to protect sensitive receivers from interference coupled through the antennas associated with the receiver. Many tuned receivers have sensitivities on the order of one microvolt and are connected to an intentional aperture (the antenna) which are constructed for efficient reception of energy in the operating range of the receiver. The potential for degradation requires relatively stringent requirements to prevent platform problems. There is no implied relationship between this requirement and RS103 that addresses radiated susceptibility to electric fields. Attempts have been made quite frequently in the past to compare electric field radiated emission and susceptibility type requirements as a justification for deviations and waivers. While RE102 is concerned with potential effects with antenna-connected receivers, RS103 simulates fields resulting from antenna-connected transmitters." ---------- >From: John Woodgate <[email protected]> >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: New EU regulations - civil aviation >Date: Mon, Sep 16, 2002, 1:17 AM > > > I read in !emc-pstc that Ken Javor <[email protected]> wrote > (in <[email protected]>) about 'New EU regulations - > civil aviation' on Sun, 15 Sep 2002: > >>Another way to say this is to paraphrase the appendix of MIL-STD-461D/E, >>which states categorically that there is no relationship between radiated >>emissions and radiates susceptibility requirements, they are for different >>purposes and the magnitudes between the respective limits are not to be >>considered a "design margin." > > That is true, but it would be more helpful if it went on to explain what > the 'different purposes' are. > -- > Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk > Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?
