I can say, from personal experience, that high speed I2S bus communications
with a modularly approve intentional radiator makes a significant change in
the unintentional emissions.  It may be/has been necessary to use a band
notch filter at the fundamental intentional frequency to keep from
overloading the measurement receiver during the investigation though.

In a perfect world, it might be possible to communicate with the intentional
radiator at full speed, but with vastly reduced transmit power, which would
seem to serve the same purpose.

Just another thought,
Brent

Subject: [PSES] application of CISPR 32 to EUTs with integrated radio
transmitters

Hello members,

I want to hear of your opinion - while emission measurement for CISPR 32,
integrated radio transmitters must transmitting?


Although the standard is not clear whether radio transmitter can be set off
in emission measurement, I believed we can set radio transmitter off, as:

- CISPR 32 said "The radiated emission requirements in this standard are not
intended to be applicable to the intentional transmissions from a radio
transmitter as defined by the ITU, nor to any spurious emissions related to
these intentional transmissions."

- If non-transmitter function of the equipment (such as CPU clock and
harmonics) generates emissions in the frequency band of the intentional
transmission of the transmitter (such as 2.4 to 2.5 GHz), I think we should
apply the emission limits as the emissions are not related to the
intentional transmissions. However, it is difficult to measure such
emissions in presence of the intentional transmission.

- The standard says "Compliance can be shown by measuring the EUT's
emissions when operating its functions simultaneously, individually in turn,
or any combination thereof." So, even if emissions from the transmitter
function must also be considered in the standard, it should permissible to
test non-transmitter function of the equipment while transmitter is set off.

- Then, if the transmitter function of the equipment is tested while all the
other functions are set off, all the emissions measured are those caused by
the transmitter.


However, I heard of strong opinions that the emission measurement must be
run while the integrated radio transmitter is transmitting, and all the
emissions in the frequency bands of intended transmissions and those
harmonics should be simply ignored.


What do you think about this?

Regards,
Tom
