3. Standardizing disturbances
There is as yet no official international standard defining RFI (radiated disturbance) and EMI (conducted disturbance). Existing standards are defined by a number of national bodies, but the current trend in European countries is towards unification.
EMI: electromagnetic interference
RFI: radiofrequency interference
The main organizations are :
IUT (International Telecommunication Union) defines and implements treaties. It controls RFI at international level. Its offices are under the authority of the United Nations;
The FFC (Federal Communications Commission) in the United States regulates these disturbances;
The IEC (International Electrotechnical...
