Concept

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is a disturbance generated by external electromagnetic sources that degrades, obstructs, or disrupts the function of electrical and electronic equipment; critical concern in military avionics and UAV systems subject to DoD MIL-STD-461 compliance requirements.

Interferência Eletromagnética (EMI) é uma perturbação gerada por fontes eletromagnéticas externas que degrada, obstrui ou interrompe o funcionamento de equipamentos elétricos e eletrônicos; preocupação crítica em aviônicos militares e sistemas de VANTs sujeitos aos requisitos de conformidade DoD MIL-STD-461.
