MATLAB EMI Receiver Emulator (MERE)

MERE is a post processing tool that delivers EMI compliance metrics from time domain data

The MATLAB EMI Receiver Emulator (MERE) is a custom software package written in MATLAB that calculates EMI performance metrics comparable to those produced by a CISPR 16-1-1 compliant EMI receiver. Input data can be produced by a circuit simulator or measured signals from an oscilloscope or data logger and must be in numerical matrix format saved as a .mat file. The input file should contain the instantaneous time and LISN voltage magnitude for a recommended minimum duration of 70 switching cycles to ensure capture of system anomalies. The sample rate for the LISN voltage measurements should be at least eight times greater than the highest frequency of interest (30 MHz for band B).
