Dallas IEEE EMC Society Chapter -- Second Meeting of the Year
Join us for the second meeting of the Dallas IEEE EMC Society Chapter, where we welcome Rohde & Schwarz's Jens Medler for a technical presentation on the latest updates to the CISPR standard series.
Jens brings nearly three decades of hands-on experience in EMC standardization, serving as convener of CISPR CIS/A WG2 and an active participant in multiple CISPR subcommittees. His presentation will cover recent developments in EMC measurement methods, instrumentation requirements, statistical techniques, and measurement uncertainty — with practical insight into what these changes mean for compliance testing professionals.
Whether you are an EMC engineer, test laboratory professional, or compliance specialist, this is a valuable opportunity to hear directly from one of the leading voices in international EMC standardization.
We look forward to seeing you there!

Recent Updates to the CISPR Standards: Measurement Equipment and Methods, Uncertainty, and Emerging Requirements
This presentation provides an overview of the latest developments within the CISPR standard series, with a focus on updates to measurement instrumentation, test methodologies, and the evolving treatment of measurement uncertainty. Drawing on active participation in CISPR subcommittees CIS/A and CIS/I, the presenter will highlight key changes affecting EMC compliance testing across information technology and multimedia applications.
Topics will include recent revisions to CISPR 16 measurement instrumentation requirements, advances in FFT-based measurement techniques, and updates emerging from CIS/I MT7 on revision of CISPR 32. The presentation will also address how these standards developments impact test equipment selection, laboratory practice, and product compliance strategies.
Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the current state of CISPR standardization and practical guidance on preparing for upcoming changes.
