EMC Design Support Tool for Consumer Product

Design method for EMC in consumer products still remains in trial and error approaches. Most EMC engineers try to reduce noise emission from the product heuristically just on the noise emission data measured in an anechoic chamber. In this study, an EMC design support tool, which visualized noise distribution directly on the product through AR glasses, and realized the subtraction method of simulating and estimating on the tool, was developed. The tool was applied to the EMC design for television sets. As the results of the application, we confirmed that the tool provided intuitive understanding of noise distribution, and helped the EMC engineers create solutions and implement them effectively in their usual way on the tool.
