EMC & RF Mgmt

Abstract

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and Radio Frequency (RF) Management Program. This project develops tools, processes, and algorithms to identify and mitigate Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) sources for Navy systems and platforms. (a) It will support the research, development, testing, and evaluation of electromagnetic compatibility criteria and frequency management to support afloat electromagnetic spectrum operations. The RF EMC criteria will be enhanced to include new RF systems and to comply with fleet operational requirements and streamline Strike Force frequency management processes. It will provide automated Spectrum Management (SM) compatibility criteria for development of operational task communication and radar/weapon plans to support fleet deployments, exercises, and contingency operations. It will provide identification and mitigation of EMI in Navy, North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), Allied, Ashore and Joint Combat Operations. It will provide analysis related to spectrum reallocation proposals to assess impacts on Navy operations and systems, as well as for the Spectrum Supportability Risk Assessments. It will assist numbered fleet commands and DoD commands with determination of EMC criteria and processes to maximize ships' ability to operate in contested and congested environments. (b) It will support the Shipboard Electromagnetic Compatibility Improvement Program (SEMCIP) to identify, engineer, and evaluate effectiveness of potential EMI corrections. The program also characterizes and quantifies the operational impact of EMI problems on system's mission performance. (c) It will support the Nuclear Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) Survivability Program. The program assesses the EMP survivability of all mission critical systems and funds development of a hardness assurance and maintenance program. It will develop improved modeling capability to reduce hardness validation costs at delivery and over the lifetime of the system/platform. The program develops new and updated design criteria, test methodology, test limits, and survivability validation procedures for all Navy systems, ships, submarines and shore facilities.
