5、r specifying and testing the susceptibility of acousticalinstruments to radiated radio-frequency electromagnetic fields. This Standard does not containrecommendations regarding the susceptibility of an instrument to conducted electromagnetic fields, orrecommendations to limit the emission of electro

6、magnetic fields from instruments. The Standard coverstwo ranges of radio frequencies for the carrier signal: 25 MHz to 500 MHz, and an extended range from 25MHz to 1 GHz. Recommended maximum electric field strengths for the radio-frequency field are 3 V/m,10 V/m, and 61.4 V/m. An electric field stre

7、ngth greater than 61.4 V/m may be selected for specificapplications. The Standard recommends limits, relative to the overall performance category of anacoustical instrument, of allowable deviation from nominal performance in the absence of aradio-frequency field.ANSI S1.14-1998AMERICAN NATIONAL STAN

8、DARDS ON ACOUSTICSThe Acoustical Society of America (ASA) provides the Secretariat for AccreditedStandards Committees S1 on Acoustics, S2 on Mechanical Vibration and Shock,S3 on Bioacoustics, and S12 on Noise. These committees have wide represen-tation from the technical community (manufacturers, co

9、nsumers, and general-interest representatives). The standards are published by the Acoustical Society ofAmerica through the American Institute of Physics as American National Stan-dards after approval by their respective standards committees and the AmericanNational Standards Institute.These standar

10、ds are developed and published as a public service to providestandards useful to the public, industry, and consumers, and to Federal, State,and local governments.Each of the Accredited Standards Committees operating in accordance with pro-cedures approved by American National Standards Institute (AN

11、SI) is responsiblefor developing, voting upon, and maintaining or revising its own standards. TheASA Standards Secretariat administers committee organization and activity andprovides liaison between the Accredited Standards Committees and ANSI. Afterthe standards have been produced and adopted by th

12、e Accredited StandardsCommittees, and approved as American National Standards by ANSI, the ASAStandards Secretariat arranges for their publication and distribution.An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially con-cerned with its scope and provisions. Consensus is establis

13、hed when, in thejudgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement hasbeen reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreementmeans much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consen-sus requires that all views and objections be consid

14、ered and that a concertedeffort be made towards their resolution.The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary. Their existencedoes not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he or she has approved thestandards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products,pr

15、ocesses, or procedures not conforming to the standards.NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at anytime. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require thataction be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this Standard.Standards Secreta

25、n National StandardRecommendations forSpecifying and Testingthe Susceptibility ofAcoustical Instruments toRadiatedRadio-frequencyElectromagnetic Fields,25 MHz to 1 GHz0 Introduction0.1 Acoustical instruments are used to measureor generate sound in situations such as occupa-tional exposure to noise,

26、laboratory experiments,instrument calibrations, and noise control assess-ments. The instrument should operate properly un-der the prevailing environmental conditions,including the presence of radio-frequency electro-magnetic fields.0.2 Electromagnetic fields are produced by fixedsources and by devic

27、es such as hand-held radiotransceivers or radio telephones. Exposure to asignificant electromagnetic field can result in erro-neous data, unwanted results, false alarms, oreven complete shutdown of an instrument.0.3 The electromagnetic susceptibility of an in-strument depends on the frequency, ampli

28、tude,and modulation of the electromagnetic field. Instru-ments showing no effect from electromagnetic sig-nals at one frequency may behave differently atanother frequency. An instruments physical di-mensions, electrical characteristics, internalshielding, and positioning all influence the fre-quency

29、 dependence. The microphone cable on anacoustical instrument can act as an antenna andcouple a radio-frequency electromagnetic field tothe instrument.0.4 The specifications recommended in thisStandard were considered to provide reasonableprotection against interference from radiated elec-tromagnetic

30、 fields. However, in some situations,an acoustical instrument that conforms to the ap-plicable specifications may still be adversely af-fected by a particular radio-frequency field.1 Scope1.1 This Standard provides recommendations forspecifying and testing the susceptibility of acousti-cal instrumen

31、ts to radiated electromagnetic fields.The instruments may be powered by batteries orfrom a public supply of electric power. Recommen-dations related to testing an instruments suscep-tibility to electromagnetic radiation are given inannex A. Annex B contains a bibliography of back-ground information.

32、1.2 The Standard does not contain recommenda-tions for specifying and testing the susceptibilityof an acoustical instrument to conducted electro-magnetic fields. The Standard does not containrecommendations to limit the radio-frequencyelectromagnetic fields that may be radiated by anacoustical instr

33、ument. It does not provide recom-mendations for the influence of radio-frequencyfields on optional external cabling or ancillary de-vices. The Standard is not applicable to audio-meters or hearing aids.1.3 This Standard provides recommendations forelectric and magnetic field strengths and for radio-

34、frequency and acoustical test signals.1.4 The Standard covers the range of radio fre-quencies from 25 MHz to 500 MHz, and an ex-tended range from 25 MHz to 1 GHz (correspond-ing to wavelengths from 12 m to 0.333 m).1.5 The recommendations of this Standard maybe used to develop radio-frequency electr

35、omag-netic susceptibility requirements for specificacoustical instruments. For individual instrumentstandards, the recommended specifications forelectromagnetic test-signal frequencies, and maxi-mum field strengths, or any other recommendationof this Standard, may be modified as appropriate.2 Defini

36、tionsSome definitions were adopted from ANSI/IEEE100-1984, IEEE Standard Dictionary of Electricaland Electronic Terms or ANSI C63.14-1992,American National Standard Dictionary for Tech-nologies of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC),Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP), and ElectrostaticDischarge (ESD).
