The definition of measured field, measured voltage and measured current[edit]
The definition of measured field, measured voltage and measured current changed. From version 4.3.9 and upward, the specified inputs are always displayed as corresponding non-modulated test-levels. The measured values are corrected for the applied modulation and the possible applied modulation conservation. In previous versions these corrections were not applied. An example: in a radiated immunity substitution test with no modulation with a test-level of 10 V/m, the measured field strength will be 10 V/m, and this value will also be displayed. If the same test is performed with 80% AM Modulation, a field strength of 18 V/m will be measured. In this case the software will however display 10 V/m, because that is the requested test-level. The displayed values are still measured values, but the measured values are corrected for the applied modulation. As a result of these changes, in an optimal situation, the values of calculated field, measured field and specified test-level should be the same. The power measurements (signal, forward, reflected and net power) are not corrected for the applied modulation and conservation. The corrections on the measured values are depending on the ability of the used measuring device to correctly measure a value when modulation is applied. If for example a field strength sensor makes an error during the measurement of the electrical field when modulation is also applied, the corrected and displayed value of the measured field strength will also not be accurate. This situation only applies to situations where a modulated signal is measured, and that is only possible when the 'fast constant' frequency change mode is used.
I have found a problem. What should I do?[edit]
If you have found a problem in the RadiMation® software, it is best to report it to us (for example through this online form). We will categorize the reported issue, register it in our defect database, and investigate the problem. When a workaround or solution is available, we will report this back to you.
I have another question, that is not answered yet[edit]
Just send your question by e-mail to the RadiMation® support team (radimation-support@raditeq.com), and we will give you an answer.
