Overview

Investigates electromagnetic pulse effects on UAV failures, suggesting design enhancements for resilience.

Key Points

  • This research examines how high-power electromagnetic pulses disrupt the operation of unmanned aerial vehicles through control signal failures.
  • Analyzed the soft-kill mechanism of UAVs under EMP conditions
  • Used a 1 × 1 m loop antenna model in CST Studio Suite for simulation
  • Investigated the noise generated in drone wiring due to EMP
  • Identified flight control paralysis due to PWM signal threshold violation as the main failure mode
  • Found that EMP coupling generates significant differential mode noise in UAV wiring
  • Established that conventional ferrite beads are ineffective, while full-body shielding is beneficial
