Note that the allowance for shorter measurement distances in CISPR 22 is for
small devices, too.  And, as noted, is limited to Class B devices.  Plus, some
regulators do not allow this option to be used and insist on 10 meter data.

Subject: RE: Class A antenna distance

 

47CFR 15.31(f)(1) allows measurements at distances other than specified and
details the extrapolation factor.

http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/cfr_2007/octqtr/47cfr15.31.htm

 

EN 55022 Section 10.2.1 has a note that specifically makes an allowance for
Class B devices to be measured at 3m.  I tend to think the detail of Class B
being included and Class A being omitted from the note has significance.

Dear members,

 

I have a question on the use of a 3 meter fully anechoic chamber.

 

Can this 3 meter chamber be used to qualify a product for FCC or CISPR class
A, since the required test distance is 10 meter?

 

Please provide any reference to paragraphs in the standards. Your responses
are appreciated.

 

Thanks,
