Electromagnetic compatibility.
Throughout the entire project lifecycle, from requirements definition to qualification.
We work on the analysis, specification, and validation of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) solutions tailored to the most demanding and complex environments.
Our electromagnetic services also address requirements related to electrical safety, protection against electromagnetic attacks (TEMPEST), and electromagnetic-origin cybersecurity risks (Cyber-EM attacks).
Electromagnetic Modeling and Numerical Simulations
- Numerical EMC and electromagnetic studies using ANSYS HFSS, ANSYS MAXWELL, CST, etc.
- Simulation of near and far fields, crosstalk, shielding, ground and return impedances, EMC of cables and connectors.
- Modeling of electromagnetic threats (ESD, pulses, lightning, fast transients, etc.).
- EMC recommendations during the design phase (component selection, PCB routing, shielding strategy, ground planes, etc.).
- Simulation-to-measurement correlation to enhance design robustness.EMC requirements and regulatory compliance.
- Specification of expected performance in the electromagnetic environment (radiated and conducted interference, ESD, magnetic fields, lightning, etc.).
- Consideration of multi-system interactions and environmental severity.
- Standards analysis & regulatory compliance: review of applicable standards by domain and concrete application recommendations to ensure compliance.
- Support in drafting justificatory documents (EMC management plan, technical specifications, contractual requirements).
EMC design and architecture.
- Architectural analysis & EMC design: identification of critical points in the system architecture.
- Application of design and protection rules (routing, filtering, shielding, decoupling, etc.).
- Study of inter-cable coupling, local shielding, ground continuity, etc.
Testing and Qualification.
- Test engineering: analysis of the specifications, definition of associated test plans, writing of test protocols, selection of testing equipment, supervision, and execution of tests.
- Post-processing, analysis of non-conformities, and proposal of corrective solutions.
- Preparation of compliance reports (technical, normative, regulatory).
- Qualification according to international standards: RTCA DO-160, MIL-STD-461/464, STANAG 1380 / AECTP-500, IEC/EN 61000-x, Directive 2014/30/EU, etc.
- Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) verification across various environments: aerospace, terrestrial, marine, and industrial.
- Support for the design of an EMC test laboratory (equipment specification, operator training, and definition of internal procedures).
Participation in collaborative R&D projects.
- Project setup focused on electromagnetic topics (CORAC, RAPID, i-Demo, H2020, etc.).
- Joint laboratory on the topic of predictive assessment of EMC constraints during product design.
