Analysis of EMC measuring methods for conducted interference with use of Mathematica package

W artykule przedstawiono pozanormatywne metody pomiarów zaburzeń przewodzonych EMC na przykładzie zasilacza impulsowego AC/DC. Wykonano analizę porównawczą znormalizowanych pomiarów kompatybilności elektromagnetycznej zaburzeń przewodzonych wykonywanych specjalizowanym odbiornikiem pomiarowym EMC z badaniami pozanormatywnymi wykonanymi w dziedzinie czasu za pomocą oscyloskopu cyfrowego. Do obliczeń numerycznych i wizualizacji wyników pomiarów wykorzystano pakiet Wolfram Mathematica 8. Przeprowadzona analiza wykazała porównywalne wyniki pomiarów obu metod.This paper presents the comparative analysis of measurements of conducted interferences taken with an EMI test receiver [5] (Fig. 1) according to norm [4] (PN-EN 55014) and non-normative measurements made by means of a digital oscilloscope (Fig. 2) in time domain. The investigations were carried out on an AC/DC supplying converter, commonly used in a low power chip TNY266 [6] (Fig. 4). Section 2 describes the measurement tests performed with the digital oscilloscope. Section 3 presents analytical transformations of signals from the time domain (Fig. 5) into the frequency domain (Fig. 6). Section 4 deals with a mathematical model of transforming [8] the sinusoidal signal with a third harmonic (Fig. 7) to the form of the frequency spectrum by means of a time window (Fig. 9). Use of time windows in real signal transformations is shown in Section 5 (Fig. 10). The signal frequency spectrum in electromagnetic compatibility research [1, 2] determines one of the most important ways of describing the level of disturbances emitted by electric and electronic equipment. Therefore the analysis results are shown on the same diagram (Fig. 11) in the frequency domain: the signal frequency spectrum of interferences measured with the EMI test receiver as well as the signal frequency spectrum obtained analytically. Numerical calculations and visualization of the measurement results were made with Wolfram Mathematic 8 packet. The analysis results show that there are slight differences between those two methods
