Stochastic electromagnetic fields caused by the data transferring signals along the printed circuit boards are potentially harmful interference sources for modern digital electronic devices. The characterization of the near-field electromagnetic emissions from the electronic device in time domain was implemented by real-time digital oscilloscope in conjunction with the sequential scanning system of the near-field probes. Excluding of the periodic sample mean function reveals the hidden cyclostationarity of the data transferring process measured by the near-field scanning system. In this article, the quantitative autocorrelation analysis of the hidden cyclostationary properties of the random nonperiodic data sequences is presented. The time-domain evolution of the autocovariance cross sections estimated at each scanning point were exploited for spatial-time localization of the transmission line.
