1. The need and purpose of CEM
1.1 Electromagnetic disturbances and interference
The electromagnetic environment has become one of the parameters to be taken into account in any industrial project involving signal or power electronics, in the same way as thermal management or mechanical stress management.
This has to be taken into account at the design stage, taking into account the final insertion of the product. The factors taken into consideration - radiation, conduction and vulnerability - need to be understood very precisely: to this end, the contribution of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) CAD software tools has become virtually indispensable. Electrical and/or electronic devices don't usually work in isolation. Electromagnetic energy, carried by currents or electromagnetic fields,...

Events
Colloque International sur la compatibilité électromagnétique (next: CEM'2010), held every even-numbered year, is a French-language conference that brings together the entire French-speaking EMC community.
The IEEE symposium on EMC is held annually in the summer in the USA.
The RF Hyper trade show is held annually in autumn in Paris.
Standards and norms
Standards and normative documents are available in France from AFNOR for non-electrical documents, and from AFNOR for electrical documents translated into French. For documents concerning electricity and therefore electromagnetic compatibility, international documents are available from UTE. They are in French (left-hand page) and English (right-hand page) for IEC and CISPR documents. Both languages carry the same...
