Question 18/V - Radiated radio frequency interference and
telecommunications equipment and systems
(New Question)

The purpose of this Question is to establish Recommendation(s) on the
subject of radiated radio frequency interference for telecommunications
equipment. Guidelines on improving the design of telecommunications
equipment and systems along with advice on precautionary measures shall
be developed. Both emission and immunity aspects are to be studied.

The work shall address:

i) what parameters should be considered when testing
telecommunications equipment to ensure compatibility with other
telecommunications systems and national EMC regulations;

ii) what measuring procedures should be adopted;

iii) the definition of acceptable immunity performance;

iv) the failure criteria of equipment when subjected to interference;

v) protection methods that may be adopted to improve the performance of
telecommunications equipment and systems.

Note 1 - In the study of this Question the work of other standards
organizations such as IEC (CISPR and other bodies) along with national
regulations, as well as of CCIR (Study Group 1) shall be considered to
avoid the duplication of work.

Note 2 - Particular attention shall be paid to the different
