Folks, I am interested in your opinions regarding antenna port conducted emissions (MIL-STD-461D CE106) on a spread spectrum/frequency hopping device.
Is it practical to automatically measure (using a swept scan EMI receiver) emissions from such a device? I would think that when using spread spectrum and a swept scan receiver, the receiver has some large probability of missing the emissions caused by a particular harmonic when using swept scanning systems. The limit for CE106 (transmitters) is derived from the power of the fundamental (there is no fundamental, only a band of operation), how do you measure that power on the EMI receiver? Does anyone have any experience/advice they would be willing to part with? Thanks Aaron Low ps. I am relatively new to this field, so my question may seem very basic to many of you; please excuse me.
