Ship Electronic System Degradation,

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to emphasize the necessity of the various technical disciplines within the naval shipbuilding community to appreciate, or at least be aware of, how the non-electronic community's decisions influence the performance of electronic systems. Many times during the design process the superstructure requires changes to accommodate new mechanical or structural requirements. Sometimes a modest structural change can cause, directly or indirectly, degradation to an electronic system which, in turn, can interfere with other electronic systems. This article will review some of the who-would-of-thought-it items that contribute to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and system degradation on navy ships. (Author)
