Safety and Standards All CDS defence products can be built and tested according to defense standards MIL-STD-810 and MIL-STD-46 MIL-STD-461G stands as the definitive military testing standard, meticulously outlining precise requirements to ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) in devices and systems designed for and utilized by the United States Department of Defense (DoD). Within the pages of MIL-STD-461G, a comprehensive suite of test procedures is meticulously detailed, strategically aligning with the DoD’s stringent regulations regarding electromagnetic emissions and susceptibility. These test procedures are categorized into four distinct groups: radiated emissions (RE), conducted emissions (CE), radiated susceptibility (RS), and conducted susceptibility (CS). Given that virtually every electronic device, ranging from a common mobile cell phone to a critical navigation component in a stealth jet, emits electromagnetic fields that could potentially compromise safety, operational efficiency, or secure communications, the detection of illicit signals and electromagnetic interference holds paramount importance in military operations. To address this pressing concern, the DoD established the Electromagnetic Compatibility Program, aiming to seamlessly integrate electromagnetic compatibility considerations into the research and development (R & D) efforts of the defence industry. Over time, all three branches of the military have
