Abstract :
The U. S. Army, with engineering assistance from the U. S. Department of Commerce, has developed a powerful new tool which will significantly enhance the ability to ensure operational electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) among existing and planned communications facilities: the transportable, automated EMC measurement system (TAEMS). The TAEMS is a self-contained, self-propelled, air/ground transportable, fully automated measurement and analysis facility, designed to perform frequency and time domain measurements of the electromagnetic environment over the range of 20 Hz-40 GHz. Innovative system design features are discussed, and selected system performance characteristics are described.
