Pre and Post Modification Electromagnetic Compatibility Test Report for the C-130H Self Contained Navigation System with MLS A-Kit. Revision

Abstract

The specific tests performed on the Self Contained Navigation System (SCNS) with MLS A-Kit, were a Pre-Modification Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Signature of the aircraft equipment bays, flight deck and connecting wiring, followed by a Post-Modification EMI Signature and a functional compatibility test of the avionic systems with the SCNS system operating. The tests performed were an engineering evaluation of post-installation EMI and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) with existing electronic and avionic systems in the C-130H Aircraft. The test objectives were to verify the proper EMI/EMC design, installation, and operation of the associated C-130H Aircraft subsystems prior to beginning flight test. This determines if the new installation, or the new or modified equipment would emit radiated or conducted EMI, and if emitted, whether the levels would create interference or degradation in existing equipment.
