EMC Test for Connected Vehicles and Communication Terminals

With rapid development of intelligent connected vehicles and VANET (vehicular ad-hoc network), electromagnetic environment that vehicles are facing becomes more complex than ever. The popular multi-function on-board radio terminals include various wireless blocks, such as mobile phone, FM radio, Wi-Fi hotspot, GPS receiver and Bluetooth transceiver, etc. All these blocks are working in a circumstance full of radio energy. Both academic circles and professionals concern if the upcoming intelligent connected vehicle and the radio terminals on-board could withstand the increasingly complex electromagnetic environment, and keep a good performance under high power radiation. Unfortunately, until today, there is no commonly agreed specification for such kind of test. In this paper, the connected vehicles, together with the on-board radio terminal, are discussed to find out a solution for their EMC test, while immunity pre-test platform is designed and corresponding test schemes are presented.
