NSA Testing Services at BQuest Labs – Ensuring Accurate Electromagnetic Compatibility

BQuest Labs is a trusted name in providing precision calibration services across various industries. Among our core competencies is NSA calibration—Normalized Site Attenuation testing—which is fundamental for ensuring electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) in test environments. Whether it’s Open Area Test Sites (OATS) or Semi Anechoic Chambers (SACs), our NSA testing process verifies that the site meets international EMC standards, offering accurate and repeatable measurement conditions.

What is Normalized Site Attenuation (NSA) Testing?

Normalized Site Attenuation testing (commonly known as NSA testing) investigates the electromagnetic properties of a test site. NSA testing involves measuring the attenuation between one transmit and one receive antenna over a specified frequency range, commonly 30 MHz to 1 GHz, and comparing those results to theoretical free-space values found in worldwide standards such as CISPR 16-1-4 and ANSI C63.4a with Measurement range0 dB to 100 dB @(30 MHz to 1 GHz).

NSA Testing as per CISPR and ANSI Standards

Our procedures follow strict NSA compliance testing criteria defined by CISPR 16-1-4 NSA testing and NSA test as per ANSI C63.4a. We are meticulous in checking both horizontal and vertical polarizations, ground plane quality, antenna heights, and ambient noise levels. These parameters significantly affect NSA measurement as per CISPR 16, ensuring the fidelity of EMC tests.


NSA Testing Equipments and Methodology at BQuest Labs

As an advanced EMC Chamber NSA calibration lab, we employ state-of-the-art tools including:
  • Highly calibrated reference antennas
  • Precision signal generators
  • Spectrum analyzers
  • VNA


Our engineers produce complete NSA reports, inclusive of graphical analyses, deviation margins, and data tables, making the information audit-ready for regulatory bodies and internal validations.


Importance of NSA Testing for EMC Sites

NSA testing for EMC sites is very important, especially in industries where EMC testing is a requirement - like aerospace, defense, automotive, telecom and healthcare. An NSA site validated with correct calibrations gives engineers the confidence to conduct emissions testing which decreases the likelihood of product failures, regulatory problems, or costly redesigns.
