Displayed Average Noise Level (DANL)
Displayed Average Noise Level (DANL)
Test Limits
See test limits in Table 22-3 and Table 22-4.
Overview
The Displayed Average Noise Level (DANL) of the EMI receiver is measured
across a 10 kHz frequency span at several center frequencies. The receiver
input is terminated into a 50 Ω load. A test is performed to assure the
measurement is not performed in the presence of a residual response. The
measurement is then averaged, and the result is normalized to a 1 Hz
bandwidth.
This measurement is performed for both RF inputs.
