Abstract: This report describes analysis models and software packages developed by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) for the assessment of single-entry and aggregate interference from terrestrial emitters into terrestrial or airborne victim receivers. The menu-driven computer programs are 100% MS-DOS compatible, and provide user options for input/ output computations, parametric representations, propagation models and emitter distributions. The flexibility in the scenario creation parameter selection, and computation mode, renders the models applicable to a wide variety of EMC assessments and conditions. Model descriptions, technical formulations, user manuals, and sample runs are provided in this report.

Keywords: computer programs; interference analysis model; received power; single entry interference
