AIR6236 In-House Verification of EMI Test Equipment

This AIR provides guidance to the EMI test facility on how to check performance of the following types of EMI test equipment:

1. Current probe
2. Line Impedance Stabilization Network (LISN)
3. Directional coupler
4. Attenuator
5. Cable loss
6. Low noise preamplifier
7. Rod antenna base
8. Passive antennas

All performance checks can be performed without software. A computer may be required to generate an electronic or hard copy of data. This is not to say that custom software might not be helpful; just that the procedures documented herein specifically eschew the necessity of automated operation.
