Together with the Wrocław University of Science and Technology , as part of a project co-financed by the National Centre for Research and Development , we carried out electromagnetic compatibility tests of our ekoSKY unmanned aircraft.
We are proud to say that the system passed the tests successfully.
Immunity to external interference
The first stage was testing the system's immunity to external interference. The system was placed in a specialist anechoic chamber. Mounted on the test stand, it simulated real operation. The system was tested in several operating phases:
- system switched on – standby phase,
- vertical flight – take-off/landing phase,
- horizontal flight – cruise phase.
Emissions of the unmanned aircraft
The tests also showed that the system does not emit high-intensity electromagnetic waves at undesirable frequencies – the emissions of the unmanned aircraft are within the standard, do not cause dangerous coupling and do not interfere with the devices installed in the unmanned aircraft.
The last stage was testing the radio module. We determined which antennas give us the longest range and the best place to mount them.
The tests were carried out in accordance with the following guidelines:
telemetry module tests under the RED Directive: 2014/53/EU, in accordance with:
- ETSI EN 300 220 – Short Range Devices (SRD) for subGHz,
tests of the unmanned system under the EMC Directive: 2014/30/EU, in accordance with:
- EN 301 489-1 V2.2.0,
- EN 301 489-3 V2.1.1 (2017-03),
- EN 301 489-17 V3.2.0 (2017-03).
