  • Electromagnetic compatibility multi-carrier immunity testing system and method
    Patent number: 8212572
    Abstract: Provided for in some embodiments is, a method of electromagnetic compatibility multi-carrier immunity testing. The method includes generating a first carrier frequency set including a first plurality of carrier frequencies simultaneously such that a device under test is subjected to the first plurality of carrier frequencies simultaneously. One or more of the first plurality of carrier frequencies is substantially different from other ones of the first plurality of carrier frequencies such that the first plurality of carrier frequencies do not interfere with one another when they are generated simultaneously, and intermodulation products of the first plurality of carrier frequencies are not significant relative to the first plurality of carrier frequencies when the first plurality of carrier frequencies are generated simultaneously.
    Type: Grant
