An apparatus for testing radiated susceptibility of electronic equipment of small space vehicles

摘要

In the article electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) tests are discussed. These tests include radiated susceptibility (RS) tests. An electronic equipment of small space vehicles is to be subjected to RS tests. A four-wire transmission line is used as an electric field source. It was applied for EMC tests for the first time. Homogeneity of the electric field in the source was studied. It is presented that the developed apparatus may be used for testing electronic equipment as well as electronic blocks of which it is consisted of. Automation helps to make measurements faster and more reliable.
