X0706 EMI Reduction and Radio Frequency Management 1,911 1,719 1,619 2,273 2,325 2,381 2,433 2,488 CONT. CONT.

A. (U) MISSION DESCRIPTION AND BUDGET ITEM JUSTIFICATION: Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Reduction and Radio Frequency (RF) Management. This project develops tools to identify and reduce EMI sources from Navy systems and platforms. There are several tools under development to identify and reduce EMI through proper use of the electromagnetic spectrum. The Battle Force (BF) EMI Evaluation System (BEES) is a computer-aided force-level EMI evaluation tool that is used to develop BF Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) policy for naval operations in the joint arena and fosters national and international inter-platform EM compatibility (EMC) during operations and exercises. The Automated Spectrum Planning, Engineering, Coordination and Tracking System (ASPECTS) is a computer-aided force-level communications planning and frequency management tool that is used to plan communication links, and analyze, allocate and assign communication and radar frequencies for fleet operations. The Waveform Recording and Playback System (WRaPS) is a unique E3 testing system to be used to measure degradation of a system performance due to EMI. The waveform of a potential interfering system is recorded; the recording can then be played back at a variety of test sites to evaluate the vulnerability of other systems to this waveform. Research includes advanced technology chamber (ATC), shielding effectiveness of composite materials, application of fiber optics to signal cables to eliminate EMI, and coherent measurements and development of E3 testing criteria/procedures.
