A Behavior Level Analytical Method of Electromagnetic Susceptibility for Radio Frequency Receiver

Based on simplified Volterra model, a behavior-level simulation analysis approach of electromagnetic susceptibility (EMS) for radio frequency (RF) receiver is presented in this article. Third order simplified Volterra model is adopted to analyze receiver EMS. A general criterion for EMS is proposed according to EMS response characteristics in frequency domain, and then the simulation flow charts for calculating susceptibility thresholds are given. This approach is superior to the previous EMS analysis method on receiver, which mainly relies on experiments but lack simulation analysis. Take the dual frequency GPS receiver and zero IF receiver interfered by continue wave as examples for in-band and out-of-band susceptibility threshold calculation. Simulation results show that the proposed method is not only valid and effective, but also reduces the internal storage and simulation time, which is suitable to RF receiver EMS analysis and practical in engineering and technology field.
