Abstract
Electric and magnetic field generators capable of producing high-amplitudeoutput are not readily available. This presents difficulties forelectromagnetic compatibility testing of new measurement systems where thesesystems are intended to operate in a particularly hostile electromagneticenvironment. A portable electric and a portable magnetic field generatorhaving high pulsed field output are described in this paper. The output ofthese generators were determined using an electromagnetic-compatiblemeasurement system. These generators allow immunity testing in the laboratoryof electronic systems to very high electrical fields, as well as forfunctional verification of the electronic systems on site. In the longer term,the basic design of the magnetic field generator may be developed as thegenerator to provide the damped sinusoid magnetic field specified inIEC 61000-4-10, which is adopted in BS EN 61000-4-10.
