Electromagnetic Interference Measurements from Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) Arc Welding

Metadata Updated: September 30, 2025

The 2.4 GHz ISM band is shared by Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Wireless HART, ISA100.11a, and several other industrial wireless systems. Our dataset contains comprehensive electromagnetic interference (EMI) measurements from TIG welding processes conducted in the NIST fabrication shop. The measurements were taken using a typical arc welding power source and recorded at three distinct frequencies: 900 MHz, 2.4 GHz, and 5.3 GHz. The data collection was performed with a bandwidth of 160 MHz and a sample rate of 625 MHz, providing high-resolution insights into the EMI characteristics during the welding operations. This dataset may be useful for understanding the EMI behavior in TIG welding and can be instrumental in developing interference mitigation strategies, aiding in RF band selection and frequency planning, and improving welding technology and regulations.Disclaimer: Certain commercial equipment, instruments, or materials are identified in this publication in order to describe the experimental procedures and data adequately. Such identification is not intended to imply recommendation or endorsement by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, nor is it intended to imply that the materials or equipment identified are necessarily the best available for the purpose.
