Summary:

By using a radio frequency (RF) audio distortion measurement test setup, communication devices can be evaluated for degradation caused by electromagnetic interference (EMI) from active vehicle components. This measurement technique can be used to determine the performance of a radio receiver under a variety of conditions.The test setup consists of making measurements on a baseband audio signal that is sent to the device under test (receiver) via over-the-air RF transmissions. Once a baseline is established, active components on the vehicle can be powered on to determine their contribution to the receiver's degradation. The degradation measured is a result of distortion caused by conducted, radiated, and/or coupled EMI from active components into the receiver's passband
