Review of EMC standards for underwater vehicles
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is a critical consideration in the design and manufacturing of any kind of automobile, including underwater vehicles like Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV) and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV), to ensure their proper functioning and to prevent Interference with other equipment. The purpose of this paper is to understand the significant importance attached to the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) concept in the design and manufacturing of underwater vehicles such as Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs). It critically reviews available standards concerning Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) for these vehicles while pointing out some of the many sources of Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) within the surroundings and the geography, such as the sea. This research makes it clear that optimum performance and lack of Interference with other marine systems are only realizable with the use of necessary EMI requirements. This paper comprehensively explores the existing and diverse EMC standards applicable to underwater Vehicles. • The investigation is about the underwater vehicle EMC standards as a crucial aspect of reliable and interruption-free operations in harsh marine environments. • Our review has focused on standards that can improve the EMC characteristics of underwater vehicles. • The study focuses on the distinct challenges of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) in underwater vehicles.
