Before connecting any components, follow the

safety information in the ETS-Lindgren

Product Information Bulletin included with your

shipment.

For emissions measurements, electric field strength in db[V/m] is obtained from:

E(dB[V/m])=V(dB[V])+AF(dB[1/m])+

α(dB)

V

= the receiver or spectrum analyzer voltage reading

AF

= antenna factor

α

= cable loss in dB, if cable losses are non-negligible

For immunity testing, the electric field strength generated at a distance d can be
approximated by:

(

)

E

Pg

d

V / m

=

30

d

= distance, in meters

g

= numeric gain (10

G[dB]/10

)

P

= antenna net input power, in watts

Actual transmitted field strength should be verified using an ETS-Lindgren
electric field probe, or equivalent. In general, closer distances require less power
to create a given field strength.
