emissions on a frequency or frequencies which are outside the necessary bandwidth and the level of which may be reduced without affecting the corresponding transmission of information. Spurious emissions include harmonic emissions, parasitic emissions, intermodulation products and frequency conversion products, but exclude out-of-band emissions.

In RF, an unwanted radiated signal, usually considered to arise as an undesirable side effect of a process, or as a result of some imperfection. The spurious output of one device may become interference to another device.
Electromagnetic radiation transmitted on a frequency outside the bandwidth required for satisfactory transmission of the required waveform. Spurious emissions include harmonics, parasitic emissions, and intermodulation products, but exclude necessary modulation sidebands of the fundamental carrier frequency.
Any emission on a frequency or frequencies outside the bandwidth of a signal including harmonic emissions, parasitic emissions, intermodulation products and frequency conversion products. Spurious emissions are a potential source of interference to other services and need to be carefully controlled.
A spurious emission is any radio frequency not deliberately created or transmitted, especially in a device which normally does create other frequencies. A harmonic or other signal outside a transmitter's assigned channel would be considered a spurious emission.
