BMW GS 95002 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Requirements and Tests

In the BMW GS 95002 standard, developed by BMW, a multinational vehicle manufacturer company headquartered in Germany, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements are explained and test methods are defined.

The standard in question consists of the following subsections under the main heading of "Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)":

• BMW GS 95002-1 General requirements and tests
• BMW GS 95002-2 General requirements and tests on component up to 60 Volt nominal voltage
• BMW GS 95002-3 General requirements and tests on component above rated voltage of 60 Volts
• BMW GS 95002-4 General requirements and tests for the total vehicle
• BMW GS 95002-5 General requirements and tests in the frequency range 9 kHz to 30 MHz
• BMW GS 95002-6 Total vehicle magnetic field requirements and tests at low frequencies

EMC tests for the automotive industry are performed to determine the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of a car and its components. Every part, from car radios to engines, needs to be tested to determine how electromagnetic fields interact and whether any part is producing electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing has become more important as radio frequency (RF) design in the automotive industry becomes more complex and manufacturers integrate WiFi, Bluetooth and 4G technologies into vehicles. State-of-the-art automobiles such as electric and automatic cars add to this complexity in design. When the instrument cluster in vehicles communicate with each other, radio frequency noise and emissions become active components creating potential sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI).

In the automotive industry, the following electromagnetic compatibility tests are mainly performed for both electromagnetic interference immunity and electromagnetic interference emission levels:

• Radiating emissions
• Transmitted emissions
• radiation immunity
• Transmitted immunity

Modern EMC testing equipment is used in advanced laboratories and automotive tests. These equipments provide radio frequency emission measurements and create a suitable environment without affecting the ambient signals.
