Abstract
- This paper deals with the challenges of railgun electromagnetic compatibility. After some general remarks on integration issues, the current regulations, norms, and standards of a high-power railgun are discussed. Different standards for ordnance or staff are considered. Also, preliminary results from the French-German Research Institute of Saint-Louis are presented. Since these laboratory data are not yet representative for future weapon systems, scaling calculations were carried out concerning energy levels, electrical sources, and cabling architecture. The obtained signal profiles are compared to the values defined by U.S., EU, or NATO standards. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
