Abstract(in English) In this study, radiated immunity tests for four kinds of medical electronic equipment, an infusion pump, a syringe pump, a medical telemeter, and a respirator, were conducted. The influence of the radiated electromagnetic field on the medical electronic equipment was examined. In the examination, a wireless LAN signal and ultra-wideband (UWB) signal were used as wideband electromagnetic sources, in addition to an amplitude-modulation (AM) sinusoidal wave. As a result, malfunctions occurred at some specific frequencies, particularly 400MHz and 800MHz, and in a certain polarization for the AM wave that is stated in IEC standards for the cases of an infusion pump and a syringe pump. However, no malfunction occurred above 1.5GHz and 2.1GHz. Electromagnetic fields radiated from a wireless LAN signal and UWB signal did not affect medical electronic equipment. The wireless LAN signal and UWB signal affected the operation of a medical telemeter in the case of horizontal polarization and or specific angles.
