MIL-STD-461 F RE103This test procedure is used to verify that radiated spurious and harmonic emissions from transmitters do not exceed the specified requirements.
MIL-STD-461 F RS101This test procedure is used to verify the ability of the EUT to withstand radiated magnetic fields.
MIL-STD-461 F RS103This test procedure is used to verify the ability of the EUT and associated cabling to withstand electric fields.
MIL-STD-461 F RS105This test procedure is used to verify the ability of the EUT enclosure to withstand a transient electromagnetic field.
MIL-STD-1686CThis military standard establishes requirements for ESD Control Programs. It applies to U.S. military agencies, contractors, subcontractors, suppliers and vendors. It requires the establishment, implementation and documentation of ESD control programs for static sensitive devices, but does NOT(...)
MismatchThe condition whereby the output impedance of the RF source differs from that of the load is said to be a “mismatch.”
ModulationThe process of varying one or more properties of a periodic waveform, called the carrier signal, with a modulating signal which typically contains information to be transmitted.
Monopole AntennaA class of radio antenna consisting of a straight rod-shaped conductor, often mounted perpendicularly over some type of conductive surface, called a ground plane.
MOSFETMetal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor. a transistor used for amplifying or switching electronic signals.
Mutual Capacitanceintentional or unintentional capacitance that occurs between two charge-holding objects or conductors, in which the current passing through one passes over into the other
Mutual Inductancethe change in current in one inductor induces a voltage in another nearby inductor
Narrowband EmissionAn emission that has a spectral energy distribution that is narrow compared to a referenced bandwidth, such as that of the suseptible receptor or the measuring receiver. This is usually defined using the 3 dB bandwidths. The unit for narrowband signal measurements using EMI receivers is(...)
Network Equipment Building SystemMost common set of safety, spatial and environmental design guidelines applied to telecommunications equipment in the United States. It is an industry requirement, but not a legal requirement.
NEBSMost common set of safety, spatial and environmental design guidelines applied to telecommunications equipment in the United States. It is an industry requirement, but not a legal requirement.
