The time-domain electromagnetic interference measurement system

A novel real-time broad-band time-domain electromagnetic interference (TDEMI) measurement system for the 30-1000-MHz frequency range is described. The signals from the antenna are sampled, analog-to-digital (A/D) converted and digitally processed. The fast-Fourier transform (FFT), the Welch- and Bartlett periodograms are digitally computed. Compared with state-of-the-art EMI measurement systems, the novel described TDEMI system samples the complete phase and amplitude information of the EMI simultaneously over the whole frequency band under consideration. With the presented time domain measurement system the measurement time can be reduced by a factor of 10. The digital processing of EMI measurements allows emulation in real-time of the various modes of conventional analogous equipment, e.g., peak, average, rms and quasi-peak detector and also introduces new concepts of analysis, e.g., phase spectra, short-time spectra, statistical evaluation and FFT-based time-frequency analysis methods.     «
