The fifth-generation wireless system (5G) is becoming more present in today's reality. Understanding the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements is critical for preparing future device designs to conform to the upcoming standards. This article provides an overview of EMC's role in the certification process and provides an updated standardization guide, comparing emissions and immunity tests of the latest 3GPP/ETSI and ITU recommendations. We discuss the test methodologies and challenges when setting up EMC test facilities, especially for OTA at the FR2 band. We also provide an example of equipment selection as a guide for 5G 3GPP RF conformance tests for User Equipment (UE) and Base Station (BS). Finally, thinking about the future, we dive into the next-generation wireless communication world to provide insights on how 6G technology advancements would impact EMC.

The key factors that influence the Radiated Emission (RE) measurement results of Inter Laboratory Comparison (ILC) program, conducted as part of proficiency testing/Quality Assurance of EMC test laboratory are presented in this paper. The evaluated classical Z score results and overall performance of the participant EMC test laboratories in ILC program are affected by these factors. The performance improvement techniques to address the influencing factors and eliminate the deviation in test results of ILC program are outlined in detail. A case study was conducted in the frequency range from 30 MHz to 1 GHz, as the deviation in Z score results is predominant below 1 GHz. The importance of awareness required to conduct ILC program accurately with minimum possible errors is highlighted in this paper.

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) instrumentation has significantly evolved over the last thirty years. In this paper, the classical architecture of a conventional receiver is described and compared with the newest architecture of a Fast-Fourier-transform (FFT) based receiver. Additionally, different ways to measure the modal emissions, that is, the common and differential modes, with both types of receivers are described. In a conventional receiver, modal emissions can be measured using an external noise separator. In a dual-port FFT-based receiver, this can be done in the digital domain. Both receivers have been used to measure a device under test emitting non-stationary interference.
