RF radiation field Test

This test applies an amplitude-modulated signal (1 kHz – 80%) to the equipment, in the 80 MHz – 2.7 GHz frequency range.
RF electromagnetic radiation energy fields are intentionally produced by TV stations, AM/FM radio stations, telephone base stations, citizens band radio equipment, mobile phones, etc.
Other types of equipment that unintentionally produce RF electromagnetic radiation energy include inductive load switches, arc welding equipment, fluorescent lights, etc.

⇒ Levels: Depends on the standard: from 1 V/m to 30 V/m.

⇒ Criterion: During the test, the equipment must be able to operate without any degradation or loss of function (criterion A, usually).
