The process of designing and testing vehicles for EMC compliance can be long and expensive. Electromagnetic simulation allows potential compliance issues to be identified early in the development process, before the construction of prototypes. However, it is desirable that the simulation is able to model the test setup accurately. In this article we look at the set-up of a virtual EMC test chamber using a commercially available software and compare the simulated results to measurements from a General Motors automotive EMC test.
