The project focuses on various aspects of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and its significance to today's automotive signal/data communication systems that include navigation, communication, safety, information and entertainment. The requirements of various data transmission networks (interconnecting wiring and connection system) to provide interface to various systems will be discussed. The importance of EMC assurance to minimize the systems emissions and susceptibility to electromagnetic Interference (EMI) will be examined. The research focuses on the identification of critical parameters that affect the performance of the data transmission network, the development of test methodology and the analytical techniques to properly define its performance characteristics. The project will develop test methodology for measurement of both functional and environment Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) of the data bus/transmission line structures. The major project will focus on the development of an unique test apparatus to perform measurement of Shielding Effectiveness and RF (Radio Frequency) attenuation against Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) for the data communication transmission structures. Shielding Effectiveness has been identified to be the key parameter in determine the systems ability to meet environmental EMC requirements. The test methods for functional characteristics of the transmission lines (based on twisted pair) will be developed. Test procedures and test results for various samples will be summarized. |
