13、rnational Standard is one of a series of parts of IEC 244. A number of existing parts of IEC 244 are currently under review and several of these will be revised or withdrawn. When this process is complete, this series of publications will comprise one part dealing with general characteristics, with

14、cross-references to relevant CCIR publications and the Radio Regulations, and a number of specialized parts, each dealing with particular types of transmitter. In most cases references to CCIR publications deliberately omit the revision number: il is assumed that reference will always be made to the

15、 later revision of CCIR publications. An exception is made here for Recommendation 460-4, whose text is reproduced in full in this publication. 3404583 0084559 807 Page 5 EN 60244-13 : 1993 METHODS OF MEASUREMENT FOR RADIO TRANSMITTERS Part 13: Performance characteristics for FM sound broadcasting 1

16、 Scope This International Standard contains the method of measurement to assess the performance characteristics of frequency modulated transmitters for sound broadcasting. To assess all other characteristics, this standard needs to be used in conjunction with the publications quoted in clause 2. Thi

17、s standard is intended to be used for type tests and acceptance or factory tests. It is not mandatory to measure all the described characteristics. Additional measurements may be carried out as an agreement between customer and manufacturer. The performance characteristics measured in accordance wit

18、h this standard makes possible the comparison of the results of measurements made by different observers. Limiting values for acceptable performance are not covered by this standard but, in connection with the presentation of measured characteristics, some data are given for clarity. 2 Normative ref

38、er revision). 7 Transmission performance characteristics Measurement can be performed on baseband signals (at frequencies up to a maximum of 1 O0 kHz) and/or audio-frequency signals (at frequencies up to 15 kHz). The baseband measurements are made at the multiplex input of the transmitter. The audio

39、 band limiting and pre-emphasis in the transmitter and the de-emphasis in the demodulator are not in circuit, unless otherwise stated.

The products of interest are the differenc

46、e tone of 1 kHz and (fi + f2) as the second order pro- ducts and the tones l kHz below fi, (f, - l kHz), and l kHz above f2 (f2 + l kHz), as the third order products. The lowest frequency for fl shall be 3 kHz. 7.2.2 Definition The second order (third order) intermodulation level is the ratio, expre

47、ssed as a per- centage or in decibels, between (1) the arithmetic sum of the r.m.s. values of the second order (third order) intermodulation component and (2) the arithmetic sum of the r.m.s. values of the wanted components at the demodulator output, for a modulation signal consisting of two tones o

48、f equal amplitude, generated within the baseband and spaced 1 kHz apart. 7.2.3 Measuring arrangement Measuring arrangement I, page 42, shall be used. Two baseband generators are connected to the input of the transmitter. The isolation between the output of the gene- rators shall be at least 40 dB. T

49、he spectrum analyser is connected to the output of the demodulator. 7.2.4 Measuring procedure - Check that the pre- and de-emphasis filters and band-limiting filters are out of circuit. - Adjust one input signal to frequency fi. - Adjust the other input signal f2 to a frequency 1 kHz higher. - Adjust both input signals to the same level, so that one modulating signal gives 50 Oh of the specified deviation value of the transmitter under test. 3404583 0084564 174 Page 10 EN 60244-13 : 1993 - Vary the input frequencies up to 76 kHz keeping the input frequency spacing at
