19、equenciesA summary of nominal test frequen-cies and corresponding test configurations is shown in Table 1.4. Significance and Use4.1 This standard provides measurement procedures fordetermining the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness ofdurable rigid wall relocatable shielded enclosures. This sta

20、n-dard specifies a method for comparing the shielded enclosureperformance of structures provided by different suppliers. Inaddition, this standard is written to minimize variations inmeasured shielding effectiveness at a given frequency and testpoint regardless of test personnel, equipment, and test

21、 site.Therefore, the shielding effectiveness of a durable rigid wallrelocatable shielded enclosure of any size from any suppliercan be determined. This standard specifies a minimum set ofmeasurements at a given frequency and a minimum set offrequencies to determine shielding effectiveness.4.2 Source

22、 FieldsPerformance of a shielded enclosure isto be assessed for two source fields: magnetic and plane wave.4.2.1 Magnetic Field MeasurementsThe attenuation pro-vided by a shielded enclosure is assessed by using a localsource to generate the near field. The magnetic field measure-ments are specified

23、for two narrow frequency bands: 140 to160 kHz and 14 to 16 MHz.4.2.2 Plane Wave MeasurementsThe attenuation providedby a shielded enclosure is assessed by using a locally generateddistant source or plane wave field. The plane wave measure-ments are specified for three narrow frequency bands: 300 to5

24、00 MHz, 900 to 1000 MHz, and 8.5 to 10.5 GHz.5. Interferences5.1 Interference with Electronic EquipmentCare shall betaken to avoid interference with other electronic equipmentoperating in the vicinity.5.2 Operational Impact Analysis and RiskThe electro-magnetic barrier must remain intact during the

25、shieldingeffectiveness measurement sequence, and use of electricallynoisy equipment must be restricted. Therefore, constructionactivity or unusual operations (facility modification or mainte-nance) may be affected. Radiated signal levels should presentno hazard to equipment, but frequency adjustment

33、ables andAttenuators as RequiredEAThe power amplifier output is usually matched to an unbalanced to balanced(balun) transformer; the balanced output is matched to a balanced dipole.BCircular loop antenna whose diameter is 30 cm (1 ft) shall be used. Theshielded circular receiving antenna can have mu

34、ltiple turns, but the total length ofwire forming the loop shall be less than16 wavelength.CAny antenna that radiates at the prescribed frequencies may be used.However, antennas that require a large clear space in the direction of wavepropagation shall not be used where clear space is limited for te

35、sting. Examples ofsuch antennas are linearly polarized log periodic dipole and circularly polarizedconical spiral antennas. Procedures are written assuming use of dipole antennasfor plane wave measurements. If a dipole antenna is used as a receiving antenna,its length shall be less than16 of wavelen

The receiving antenna is usuallyconnected to a balun then to an attenuator.DAny antenna that radiates at the prescribed frequencies may be used excepta linearly polarized log periodic dipole antenna or circularly polarized conical spiralantenna. Procedures are written assuming use of aperture a

An isolator is usually used between thesource and its antenna to minimize variation of power between reference and testmeasurements.EWell shielded coaxial cable such as flexible semi-rigid coaxial cable, RG-214or RG-223, shall be used.E18510428.3 Pr

38、eliminary ProceduresPerform the following pre-liminary test on all accessible shielding faces to detect weakpoints and to permit remedy of shielding defects caused byfaulty assembly and poor workmanship prior to actual mea-surement.8.3.1 With the transmitting antenna turned off, perform acontinuous

39、wave (cw) measurement at each frequency to beused for testing to ensure that no emitters are nearby that maycause interference. Frequency adjustments may be necessary toavoid interference. Setup for this measurement is the referencemeasurement (see Section 9 and Fig. 1a and Fig. 2a).8.3.2 Additional

40、ly, perform a receiving equipment couplingmeasurement. The setup for this measurement is the referencemeasurement (Section 9) with the following exceptions. Dis-connect the receiving antenna from the nearest cable andreplace the receiving antenna with a dummy load (resistiveload matched to the chara

41、cteristic impedance of the receivingsystem) as shown in Fig. 3. Measured levels shall be negligibleso the required dynamic ranges are maintained. If the measuredlevels are larger than expected, determine the penetrationpoints and correct the identified leakage points. Repeat thereceiving equipment c

42、oupling measurements until negligiblelevels are maintained.8.3.3 Perform a noise measurement with the followingequipment setup. Place the receiving antenna and equipmentinside the enclosure and turn off the transmitting antennaplaced outside the enclosure (see Fig. 4).The receiving antennacan be pla

43、ced outside the enclosure. When this is done anE1851043attenuator shall be inserted between the receiving antenna andreceiving equipment, and it shall be set to a shielding effec-tiveness level of the enclosure being tested. Measure the noiselevel at each frequency to be used for testing.8.3.4 After

44、 noise levels have been found negligible (or thetest equipment has been modified to make the penetrationnegligible), position the transmitting and receiving antennas inaccordance with the procedures detailed in Section 10. Foreach location, use the receiving antenna as a probe to locateareas of maxi

45、mum penetration. Alternatively, a commercialleak detector may be used. Check all penetrations such asdoors, power line filters, air vents, seams, and coaxial cablefittings. If the performance of the enclosure appears to beinadequate for its design, remedial measures are suggestedprior to complete te

46、sting. Identify regions of significantlygreater field penetration for later measurements.9.

Placethe loops of the transmitting and receiving antennas in acoplanar configuration. Place the transmitting and receivingantennas so the distance between them is 90 cm (3 ft) plus thethic

48、kness of the enclosure (see Fig. 1a). If an attenuator is usedas the basis for the desired measurement, the attenuator shall becalibrated and the results shall be documented. The attenuatorimpedance shall match the system transmission line imped-ance. Place the receiving system, but not the receivin
