Operation of Electronic Security Systems in an Environment Exposed to Conducted and Radiated Electromagnetic Interference

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This paper presents an analysis of the impact of conducted and radiated electromagnetic interference affecting the electrical circuits of electronic security systems (ESS) operating over wide areas. The Earth’s electromagnetic environment is heavily distorted by intended and unintended (stationary or non-stationary) sources of radiation. The occurrence of electromagnetic interference in a given environment where an ESS is in use is the cause of damage or malfunction of the entire system or its individual components, e.g., detectors, modules, control panels, etc. In this article, the authors conducted an assessment of the electromagnetic environment where ESS are operated and conducted studies of selected sources of interference. For selected ESS structures, they developed models of the impact of conducted and radiated interference on the process of using these systems in a given environment. For selected technical structures of ESS, the authors of this article developed models of the operation process. They also carried out a computer simulation to determine the impact of natural and artificial electromagnetic interference occurring on the process of using these systems in a given environment over a wide area. The considerations carried out in this article are summarized in the conclusions chapter about the process of using ESS in a distorted electromagnetic environment.
