3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
amplitude modulation
process by which the amplitude of a carrier wave is varied following a specified law
3.2
anechoic chamber
shielded enclosure which is lined with radio-frequency absorbers to reduce reflections from the internal surfaces
3.2.1
fully anechoic chamber
shielded enclosure whose internal surfaces are totally lined with anechoic material
3.2.2
semi-anechoic chamber
shielded enclosure where all internal surfaces are covered with anechoic material with the exception of the floor, which shall be reflective (ground plane)
3.2.3
modified semi-anechoic chamber
semi-anechoic chamber which has additional absorbers installed on the ground plane
3.3
antenna
transducer which either emits radio-frequency power into space from a signal source or intercepts an arriving electromagnetic field, converting it into an electrical signal
3.4
balun
device for transforming an unbalanced voltage to a balanced voltage or vice versa
[IEV 60050(161)]
3.5
continuous waves (CW)
electromagnetic waves, the successive oscillations of which are identical under steady-state conditions, which can be interrupted or modulated to convey information
3.6
electromagnetic (EM) wave
radiant energy produced by the oscillation of an electric charge characterized by oscillation of the electric and magnetic fields
3.7
far field
region where the power flux density from an antenna approximately obeys an inverse square law of the distance.
For a dipole this corresponds to distances greater than λ/2π, where λ is the wavelength of the radiation
3.8
field strength
Field strength (namely electric field strength) is the ratio of the electrostatic force to the electric charge at a point in the electric field, which is used to indicate the strength and direction of the electric field.
The term "field strength" is applied only to measurements made in the far field. The measurement may be of either the electric or the magnetic component of the field and may be expressed as V/m, A/m or W/m2; any one of these may be converted into the others.
For measurements made in the near field, the term "electric field strength" or "magnetic field strength" is used according to whether the resultant electric or magnetic field, respectively, is measured. In this field region, the relationship between the electric and magnetic field strength and distance is complex and difficult to predict, being dependent on the specific configuration involved. Inasmuch as it is not generally feasible to determine the time and space phase relationship of the various components of the complex field, the power flux density of the field is similarly indeterminate.
3.9
frequency band
continuous range of frequencies extending between two limits
3.10
Ec
field strength applied for calibration
3.11
Et
carrier field strength applied for testing
3.12
full illumination
test method in which the EUT face being tested fits completely within the UFA (Uniform Field Area, see the test methods covered in 3.27).
This test method may be applied for all test frequencies
3.13
human body-mounted equipment
equipment which is intended for use when attached to or held in close proximity to the human body.
This term includes hand-held devices which are carried by people while in operation (e.g. pocket devices) as well as electronic aid devices and implants
3.14
independent windows method
test method (using 0.5 m × 0.5 m UFA) in which the EUT face being tested does not fit completely within the UFA.
This test method may be applied for test frequencies greater than 1 GHz
3.15
induction field
predominant electric and/or magnetic field existing at a distance d < λ/2π, where λ is the wavelength, and the physical dimensions of the source are much smaller than distance d
3.16

device which radiates (transmits) an electromagnetic field intentionally. Examples include digital mobile telephones and other radio devices
3.17
isotropic
having properties of equal values in all directions
3.18

highest short-term RMS value of a modulated RF signal during an observation time of one modulation period.
The short-term RMS is evaluated over a single carrier cycle. For example, in Figure 1 b), the maximum RMS voltage is:
(1)
3.19
non-constant envelope modulation
RF modulation schemes in which the amplitude of the carrier wave varies slowly in time compared with the period of the carrier itself. Examples include conventional amplitude modulation and TDMA
3.20
Pc
forward power needed to establish the calibration field strength
3.21
partial illumination
test method (using a minimum sized UFA of 1.5 × 1.5 m) in which the EUT face being tested does not fit completely within the UFA.
This test method may be applied for all test frequencies.
3.22
polarization
orientation of the electric field vector of a radiated field
3.23
shielded enclosure
screened or solid metal housing designed expressly for the purpose of isolating the internal from the external electromagnetic environment. The purpose is to prevent outside ambient electromagnetic fields from causing performance degradation and to prevent emission from causing interference to outside activities
3.24
sweep
continuous or incremental traverse over a range of frequencies
3.25
TDMA (time division multiple access)
time multiplexing modulation scheme which places several communication channels on the same carrier wave at an allocated frequency. Each channel is assigned a time slot during which, if the channel is active, the information is transmitted as a pulse of RF power. If the channel is not active no pulse is transmitted, thus the carrier envelope is not constant. During the pulse, the amplitude is constant and the RF carrier is frequency- or phase-modulated
3.26
transceiver
combination of radio transmitting and receiving equipment in a common housing
3.27
uniform field area (UFA)
hypothetical vertical plane of the field calibration in which variations are acceptably small.
The purpose of field calibration is to ensure the validity of the test result. See 6.2
4 General
Most electronic equipment is, in some manner, affected by electromagnetic radiation. This radiation is frequently generated by such general purpose sources as the small hand-held radio transceivers that are used by operating, maintenance and security personnel, fixed-station radio and television transmitters, vehicle radio transmitters, and various industrial electromagnetic sources.
In recent years there has been a significant increase in the use of radio telephones and other RF emitting devices operating at frequencies between 0.8 GHz and 6 GHz. Many of these services use modulation techniques with a non-constant envelope (e.g. TDMA). See 5.2.
In addition to electromagnetic energy deliberately generated, there is also radiation caused by devices such as welders, thyristors, fluorescent lights, switches operating inductive loads, etc. For the most part, this interference manifests itself as conducted electrical interference and, as such, is dealt with in other parts of the IEC 61000-4 standard series. Methods employed to prevent effects from electromagnetic fields will normally also reduce the effects from these sources.
The electromagnetic environment is determined by the strength of the electromagnetic field. The field strength is not easily measured without sophisticated instrumentation nor is it easily calculated by classical equations and formulas because of the effect of surrounding structures or the proximity of other equipment that will distort and/or reflect the electromagnetic waves.
5 Test Levels
The test levels are given in Table 1.
Table 1 Test Levels Related to General Purpose, Digital Radio Telephones and Other RF Emitting Devices
Level Test field strength (V/m)
1 1
2 3
3 10
4 30
X Special
X is an open test level and the associated field strength may be any value. This level may be given in the product standard.
This part does not suggest that a single test level is applicable over the entire frequency range. Product committees shall select the appropriate test level for each frequency range needing to be tested as well as the frequency ranges. See Annex E for a guidance for product committees on the selection of test levels.
The test field strength column gives values of the unmodulated carrier signal. For testing of equipment, this carrier signal is 80% amplitude modulated with a 1 kHz sine wave to simulate actual threats (see Figure 1). Details of how the test is performed are given in Clause 8.
5.1 Test Levels Related to General Purposes
The tests are normally performed without gaps in the frequency range 80 MHz to 1000 MHz.
Note 1: Product committees may decide to choose a lower or higher transition frequency than 80 MHz between IEC 61000-4-3 and IEC 61000-4-6 (see Annex G).
Note 2: Product committees may select alternative modulation schemes for equipment under test.
Note 3: IEC 61000-4-6 also defines test methods for establishing the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment against radiated electromagnetic energy. It covers frequencies below 80 MHz.
5.2 Test Levels Related to the Protection Against RF Emissions from Digital Radio Telephones and Other RF Emitting Devices
The tests are normally performed in the frequency ranges 800 MHz to 960 MHz and 1.4 GHz to 6 GHz.
The frequencies or frequency bands to be selected for the test are limited to those where mobile radio telephones and other intentional RF emitting devices actually operate. It is not intended that the test needs to be applied continuously over the entire frequency range from 1.4 GHz to 6 GHz. For those frequency bands used by mobile radio telephones and other intentional RF emitting devices, specific test levels may be applied in the corresponding frequency range of operation.
Also if the product is intended to conform only to the requirements of particular countries, the measurement range 1.4 GHz to 6 GHz may be reduced to cover just the specific frequency bands allocated to digital mobile telephones and other intentional RF emitting devices in those countries. In this situation, the decision to test over reduced frequency ranges shall be documented in the test report.
Note 1: Annex A contains an explanation regarding the decision to use sine wave modulation for tests related to protection against RF emissions from digital radio telephones and other intentional RF emitting devices.
Note 2: Annex E contains guidance with regard to selecting test levels.
Note 3: The measurement ranges for Table 2 are the frequency bands generally allocated to digital radio telephones (Annex G contains the list of frequencies known to be allocated to specific digital radio telephones at the time of publication).
Note 4: The primary threat above 800 MHz is from radio telephone systems and other intentional RF emitting devices with power levels similar to that of radio telephones. Other systems operating in this frequency range, e.g. radio LANs operating at 2.4 GHz or higher frequencies, are generally very low power (typically lower than 100 mW), so they are much less likely to present significant problems.

3.7
far field
region where the power flux density from an antenna approximately obeys an inverse square law of the distance.
For a dipole this corresponds to distances greater than λ/2π, where λ is the wavelength of the radiation
3.8
field strength
Field strength (namely electric field strength) is the ratio of the electrostatic force to the electric charge at a point in the electric field, which is used to indicate the strength and direction of the electric field.
The term "field strength" is applied only to measurements made in the far field. The measurement may be of either the electric or the magnetic component of the field and may be expressed as V/m, A/m or W/m2; any one of these may be converted into the others.
For measurements made in the near field, the term "electric field strength" or "magnetic field strength" is used according to whether the resultant electric or magnetic field, respectively, is measured. In this field region, the relationship between the electric and magnetic field strength and distance is complex and difficult to predict, being dependent on the specific configuration involved. Inasmuch as it is not generally feasible to determine the time and space phase relationship of the various components of the complex field, the power flux density of the field is similarly indeterminate.

The purpose is to prevent outside ambient electromagnetic fields from causing performance degradation and to prevent emission from causing interference to outside activities
3.24
sweep
continuous or incremental traverse over a range of frequencies
3.25
TDMA (time division multiple access)
time multiplexing modulation scheme which places several communication channels on the same carrier wave at an allocated frequency. Each channel is assigned a time slot during which, if the channel is active, the information is transmitted as a pulse of RF power. If the channel is not active no pulse is transmitted, thus the carrier envelope is not constant. During the pulse, the amplitude is constant and the RF carrier is frequency- or phase-modulated
3.26

combination of radio transmitting and receiving equipment in a common housing
3.27
uniform field area (UFA)

4 General
Most electronic equipment is, in some manner, affected by electromagnetic radiation. This radiation is frequently generated by such general purpose sources as the small hand-held radio transceivers that are used by operating, maintenance and security personnel, fixed-station radio and television transmitters, vehicle radio transmitters, and various industrial electromagnetic sources.
In recent years there has been a significant increase in the use of radio telephones and other RF emitting devices operating at frequencies between 0.8 GHz and 6 GHz. Many of these services use modulation techniques with a non-constant envelope (e.g. TDMA). See 5.2.
In addition to electromagnetic energy deliberately generated, there is also radiation caused by devices such as welders, thyristors, fluorescent lights, switches operating inductive loads, etc. For the most part, this interference manifests itself as conducted electrical interference and, as such, is dealt with in other parts of the IEC 61000-4 standard series. Methods employed to prevent effects from electromagnetic fields will normally also reduce the effects from these sources.
The electromagnetic environment is determined by the strength of the electromagnetic field. The field strength is not easily measured without sophisticated instrumentation nor is it easily calculated by classical equations and formulas because of the effect of surrounding structures or the proximity of other equipment that will distort and/or reflect the electromagnetic waves.
5 Test Levels
The test levels are given in Table 1.
Table 1 Test Levels Related to General Purpose, Digital Radio Telephones and Other RF Emitting Devices
Level Test field strength (V/m)
1 1
2 3
3 10
4 30
X Special
X is an open test level and the associated field strength may be any value. This level may be given in the product standard.
This part does not suggest that a single test level is applicable over the entire frequency range. Product committees shall select the appropriate test level for each frequency range needing to be tested as well as the frequency ranges. See Annex E for a guidance for product committees on the selection of test levels.
The test field strength column gives values of the unmodulated carrier signal. For testing of equipment, this carrier signal is 80% amplitude modulated with a 1 kHz sine wave to simulate actual threats (see Figure 1). Details of how the test is performed are given in Clause 8.
5.1 Test Levels Related to General Purposes
The tests are normally performed without gaps in the frequency range 80 MHz to 1000 MHz.
Note 1: Product committees may decide to choose a lower or higher transition frequency than 80 MHz between IEC 61000-4-3 and IEC 61000-4-6 (see Annex G).
Note 2: Product committees may select alternative modulation schemes for equipment under test.
Note 3: IEC 61000-4-6 also defines test methods for establishing the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment against radiated electromagnetic energy. It covers frequencies below 80 MHz.
5.2 Test Levels Related to the Protection Against RF Emissions from Digital Radio Telephones and Other RF Emitting Devices
The tests are normally performed in the frequency ranges 800 MHz to 960 MHz and 1.4 GHz to 6 GHz.
The frequencies or frequency bands to be selected for the test are limited to those where mobile radio telephones and other intentional RF emitting devices actually operate. It is not intended that the test needs to be applied continuously over the entire frequency range from 1.4 GHz to 6 GHz. For those frequency bands used by mobile radio telephones and other intentional RF emitting devices, specific test levels may be applied in the corresponding frequency range of operation.
Also if the product is intended to conform only to the requirements of particular countries, the measurement range 1.4 GHz to 6 GHz may be reduced to cover just the specific frequency bands allocated to digital mobile telephones and other intentional RF emitting devices in those countries. In this situation, the decision to test over reduced frequency ranges shall be documented in the test report.
Note 1: Annex A contains an explanation regarding the decision to use sine wave modulation for tests related to protection against RF emissions from digital radio telephones and other intentional RF emitting devices.
Note 2: Annex E contains guidance with regard to selecting test levels.
Note 3: The measurement ranges for Table 2 are the frequency bands generally allocated to digital radio telephones (Annex G contains the list of frequencies known to be allocated to specific digital radio telephones at the time of publication).
Note 4: The primary threat above 800 MHz is from radio telephone systems and other intentional RF emitting devices with power levels similar to that of radio telephones. Other systems operating in this frequency range, e.g. radio LANs operating at 2.4 GHz or higher frequencies, are generally very low power (typically lower than 100 mW), so they are much less likely to present significant problems.
