Task-oriented
Reason for question
The telecommunications industry normally fulfils its EMC
requirements by a combination of modular and in situ
testing. This has the tendency to be expensive, have high
experimental uncertainty (i.e. limited confidence in the
results) and leave the operator with little option where
in situ testing produces adverse results. This
question seeks to offer a mathematically based technique for
minimizing the cost and maximizing the confidence of EMC
compliance at the system level.
Text of question
This question will study mathematical techniques for
assessing the EMC compliance of large systems. The question will
review the suitability of techniques such as:
- probabilistic analysis,
- stochastic evaluation, and
- Monte Carlo simulation
for inclusion in mathematical models for telecommunications EMC.
The study will also review the use and limitations of:
- test site measurements,
- near field measurements, and
- predictions (e.g. from PCB analysis)
as input data to the models produced.
Specific objective and time-frame
One or more recommendations providing guidance on whether and
how mathematical techniques can be used to show EMC compliance
of telecommunication systems will be produced. The
recommendation may also include detail on specific models, which
can be shown to have validity, and on the limitations (e.g.
prediction uncertainty) of these models.
