RE Analyst Model Description

RE Analyst calculates radiated emissions produced by radio frequency current flowing through, and voltage between, circuit conductors.  The radiated emissions model is the same as the conducted emissions model, consisting of four major components:

Source

Filter

Conductors

Load

 

 

The Source models the current and voltage characteristics of the active circuit that is the source of the radio frequency noise.

The Filter models components that exist between the Source and the Conductors.  Typically Filter components are intentionally added to the circuit to attenuate radio frequency noise produced by the SourceFilter components may be lumped circuit elements, such as resistors and capacitors, as well as printed wiring board traces.

The Conductors are electrical cabling that connects the Filter to the LoadConductors may be a variety of configurations consisting of circular conductors, ground planes, and shields.

The Load models electrical circuitry that is connected to the Conductors.  Loads are comprised of passive circuit components and printed wiring board traces.

RE Analyst calculates radiated field levels produced by the conductors.  The conductors act as antennas, producing radiation when a RF signal, i.e. conducted emissions, is impressed upon them.
