This document specifies methods for testing the immunity of passenger cars and commercial vehicles to electromagnetic disturbances, regardless of the vehicle propulsion system (e.g. spark ignition engine, diesel engine, electric motor) using a reverberation chamber.

The electromagnetic disturbances considered are limited to narrowband electromagnetic fields.

While this document refers specifically to passenger cars and commercial vehicles, generalized as “vehicle(s)”, it can readily be applied to other types of vehicles.

ISO 11451-1 specifies general test conditions, definitions, practical use, and basic principles of the test procedure.

Function performance status classification guidelines for immunity to electromagnetic radiation from an off-vehicle radiation source are given in Annex A.
