Modern electronic systems are increasingly deployed in environments that cannot be fully represented during conventional EMC compliance testing. While laboratory measurements remain essential for demonstrating compliance, they do not always capture the complex interactions that occur in real-world installations, where factors such as system integration, cable infrastructure, grounding networks, ambient electromagnetic signals, and dynamic operating conditions can significantly influence electromagnetic behavior.
This presentation examines the role of in-situ EMC measurements as a complementary tool to traditional compliance testing. Practical measurement strategies are discussed for investigating system-level EMC performance directly at the point of operation, including site surveys, interference detection, source localization, correlation techniques, and mitigation verification. Through a structured measurement workflow, attendees will gain insight into how in-situ measurements can be used to identify, analyze, and resolve electromagnetic compatibility issues in both standalone equipment and complex interconnected systems.
