Electromagnetic Compatibility Regulations and Countermeasure in Ships

Recently, it is increasingly common that ships are built electrically controlled engines and installed with remote-control equipment. The effect of electromagnetic waves and interference may cause any of these systems to malfunction. Similar worries address to the effects on living organisms, an area where practical, real-world research is needed. Because trends indicate that more high-performance electronic devices will be installed on ships in the future, research into electromagnetic compatibility is becoming increasingly important to guarantee shipboard safety. It is vital to grapple with the problem of electromagnetic environments in the same way demanded by air pollution and water pollution. This paper examines electromagnetic-compatibility regulations and countermeasures for engine-control devices abroad ships.
