Description
Summary:The aim of this thesis was to develop a model of a receiver which could be quickly used to analyze radiated interference levels from data captured at the output of the antenna equipment used to measure radiated energy. Active circuits were mainly used in developing this model for the ease with which the design and simulations could be carried out in OrCAD. The guiding document for the thesis work has been CISPR 16-1-1 (International Special Committee on Radio Interference part 16-1-1) which specifies the characteristics and performance of equipment for the measurement of radiated interference. The testing of this receiver model was carried out as far as possible based on the test setups recommended in CISPR, and all results have been compared with the standards laid down for the model. Using the results, it will be shown that a CISPR EMI receiver can be modeled as a simple EMI receiver consisting of filtering, mixing and detecting circuits built according to specifications.
