This AIR provides guidance to the EMI test facility on how to check performance of the following types of EMI test equipment:
– Current probe
– Line Impedance Stabilization Network (LISN)
– Directional coupler
– Attenuator
– Cable loss
– Low noise preamplifier
– Rod antenna base
– 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.
