Need to know the compliance requirements for automotive stereo systems with wireless enabled features?
For radio immunity testing, a test tone signal (typically 1kHz) is required to play through the stereo system. The tone signal played to the AM/FM receiver and for CD operations, is provided in a simple straightforward input of the AM or FM modulated signal from a standard signal generator or CD ROM. However, for the satellite radio, a special set of equipment is required to generate the tone. Elite has developed the instrumentation and software to generate the XM and Sirrius Digital Satellite Radio Service test tone to fully support satellite radio testing.
Elite can provide systems monitoring instrumentation. Ten multi-channel digital oscilloscopes are available. Each systems can monitor up to 16 channels of speaker output continuously.
