Other EMC measurements
Electromagnetic measurements

There are other EMC measurements beyond the two main categories (emission and immunity). These include the following measurements.

• Electromagnetic Environment Measurements

  Using the tools described in the preceding sections, these measurements help determine a site’s electromagnetic environment in order to identify any emissions that may be present at that site and to take appropriate measures if certain emissions produce field strengths that exceed generally accepted immunity standards. This is the case, for example, when installing sensitive equipment at a site near very powerful radio transmitters (radar, radio or television broadcast transmitters, etc.).

• Measuring the effectiveness of electromagnetic shields (shielding)

  These are described in a number of standards on shielding, such as the French military standard GAM T-20 or the...
