Electromagnetic Interference

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) refers to the disturbance caused by electromagnetic radiation on electronic equipment. In aviation, EMI can be caused by various sources such as radio transmitters, radar systems, and other electronic devices. EMI can affect the performance of avionics equipment, leading to incorrect readings or even complete failure. To prevent EMI, aircraft are designed with shielding and grounding systems, and avionics equipment is tested to ensure it meets EMI standards. Pilots are also trained to recognize and respond to EMI events, such as radio interference or GPS signal loss.
