Optimized Aircraft EMC demonstration based on exploitation of Digitalized Data: EMC Matrix Tool

연구 분야: Verification

학회: 2020 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility - EMC EUROPE

Present contribution describes the functionalities of the EMC Matrix tool created to support the EMC design and EMC demonstration of aircraft electrical/electronical systems and installations. EMC Matrix is a software utility which processes digital data on equipment EMI qualification, functional architecture and electrical topology of any particular design in order to identify and predict possible EM Interference conflicts and weaknesses on installation. In parallel, the tool is able to discard most of the usual aircraft-level system-to-system Source/Victim EMC checks based on coupling path analyses and solid similarity evidences provided by the exploitation of configuration details on aircraft designs. The set of analyses provided by the tool leads to significant reduction of the Aircraft-Level EMC tests required for the certification and qualification milestones of projects, thus reducing cost and saving schedule needs at these critical phases, while collecting robust analytical evidences for optimal EMC demonstration.
