GB/T 18655-2025 Vehicles, boats and internal combustion engines - Radio disturbance characteristics - Limits and methods of measurement for the protection of on-board receivers English
1 Scope
This document contains limits and procedures for the measurement of radio disturbances in the frequency range of 150 kHz to 5 925 MHz. This document is applicable to vehicles, boats, trailers, internal combustion engine driven equipment and any electronic/electrical component intended for use in vehicles, boats, trailers and combustion engine driven equipment. The details of frequency distribution in this document refer to International Telecommunication Union (ITU) publications and practical applications in China. The limits in this document are intended to provide protection for on-board receivers installed in a vehicle from disturbances produced by components/modules in the same vehicle.
The receiver types to be protected are, for example, broadcast receivers (sound and television), land mobile radio, radio telephone, amateur, citizens' radio, Satellite Navigation (Beidou, GPS etc.), Wi-Fi, V2X, and Bluetooth. This document does not include protection of electronic control systems from radio frequency (RF) emissions or from transient or pulse-type voltage fluctuations. These subjects are included in other Standardization Committee publications.
The limits in this document are recommended and subject to modification as agreed between the vehicle manufacturer and the component supplier. This document is also applicable to parts and equipment that vehicle manufacturers and component and equipment suppliers add and connect to the vehicle harness or to an on-board power connector after delivery of the vehicle.
This document defines test methods for use by vehicle manufacturers and suppliers, to assist in the design of vehicles and components and ensure controlled levels of on-board radio frequency emissions.
The emission requirements in this document are not intended to be applicable to the intentional transmissions from a radio transmitter as defined by the ITU including their spurious emissions.
Note 1: This exclusion is only applicable to emissions generated by intentional transmitters, which are coupled to the wiring harness of the EUT in the form of radiated emissions during testing setup. For conducted transmissions on frequencies intentionally produced by the radio part of an EUT, this exclusion does not apply.
Note 2: It is usual for customers and suppliers to use radio regulation standards to manage the effect of spurious emissions from a radio transmitter unless limits of spurious emission are agreed in the test plan.
Note 3: See Annex A for the suitability inspection process.
