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 Welchand 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.Index Terms-Digital signal processing, discrete Fourier transforms (DFTs) , electromagnetic interference (EMI), fast Fourier transform (FFT), measurement, spectral analysis, time-domain measurements.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
