This standard specifies methods to validate computational electromagnetics (CEM) computer modeling and simulation (M&S) techniques, codes, and models. It is applicable to a wide variety of electromagnetic (EM) applications including but not limited to the fields of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), radar cross section (RCS), signal integrity (SI), and antennas. Validation of a particular solution data set can be achieved by comparison to the data set obtained by measurements, alternative codes, canonical methods, or analytic methods.
