CISPR 16-1-1:2006

This part of CISPR 16 is designated a basic standard, which specifies the characteristics and performance of equipment for the measurement of radio disturbance voltages, currents and fields in the frequency range 9 kHz to 18 GHz. In addition, requirements are specified for specialized equipment for discontinuous disturbance measurements. The requirements include the measurement of broadband and narrowband types of radio disturbance. The receiver types covered include the following: a) the quasi-peak measuring receiver, b) the peak measuring receiver, c) the average measuring receiver, d)the r.m.s. measuring receiver. In addition there are specifications for spectrum analyzers, scanning receivers and audio-frequency voltmeters. The requirements of this publication shall be complied with at all frequencies and for all levels of radio disturbance voltages, currents, power or field strengths within the CISPR indicating range of the measuring equipment. CISPR 16-1 has been reorganised into 5 parts, to accommodate growth and easier maintenance. This first edition of CISPR 16-1-1, together with CISPR 16-1-2, CISPR 16-1-3, CISPR 16-1-4 and CISPR 16-1-5, cancels and replaces the second edition of CISPR 16-1, published in 1999, amendment 1 (2002) and amendment 2 (2003). It contains the relevant clauses of CISPR 16-1 without technical changes.

CISPR 16-1-1:2010 specifies the characteristics and performance of equipment for the measurement of radio disturbance in the frequency range 9 kHz to 18 GHz. In addition, requirements are provided for specialized equipment for discontinuous disturbance measurements. The specifications in this standard apply to EMI receivers and spectrum analyzers. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2006, and its Amendments 1 (2006) and 2 (2007). It is a technical revision. This main technical change with respect to the previous edition consists of the addition of new provisions for the use of spectrum analyzers for compliance measurements. CISPR 16-1-1:2009 has the status of a basic EMC publication in accordance with IEC Guide 107, Electromagnetic compatibility - Guide to the drafting of electromagnetic compatibility publications. The contents of the corrigendum of October 2010 have been included in this copy.
