By incorporating new measurement methods, updating it to meet new requirements, and making sure users can complete measurement jobs even more quickly, Rohde & Schwarz is continuing to improve its R&S ELEKTRA EMC test software.

All current EMC standards used in the commercial, automotive, wireless, military, and aerospace industries are now supported by R&S ELEKTRA. For EMC tests during development and completely automated, standard-compliant certification measurements, the program offers interactive, partially and fully automated solutions.
The robust array of EMC test equipment and signal and spectrum analyzers from Rohde & Schwarz, the industry leader in EMC test and measurement, is well matched with the extensive EMC test software family known as R&S ELEKTRA.
All of the current standard-compliant emission, radiated, and conducted EMS measurements are supported by the solution, including AWGN interference signals, EMS tests in reverberation chambers (RVC), and the simultaneous use of several interference signals.
This program can be used by EMC test labs and development departments to automate their test procedures and guarantee that their test equipment operate at their best. This saves money, time, and resources.
Efficient user interface and hardware usage save time and costs
The complete EMC system is controlled, and EMC testing is automated by R&S ELEKTRA test software. All of the crucial features for the test setup are accessible at a single level through the user interface.
A keyword search tool also provides immediate access to a large collection of predefined measurements, standard-compliant test configurations, and test sequences, greatly simplifying test setting.
Setting up the first measurement just takes a few minutes. R&S ELEKTRA saves an extraordinary amount of measuring time by utilizing the computer’s capabilities and the instrument interfaces to their fullest.
Monitoring for correct, reproducible EMC measurements
Along with storing all pertinent data and measurement results, the software also keeps an eye on how plausible the measurement settings are. By doing this, R&S ELEKTRA is able to guarantee measurement comparability and reproducibility, avoiding inaccurate readings.
Laboratory staff can receive thorough test reports with the consistently reproducible measurement data as soon as the measurements are finished.
Test results and specific measurement data can be gathered and kept in R&S ELEKTRA’s proprietary SQL database. This database’s standard interface allows measurement data to be sent to, say, ERP or CRM systems for analysis.
