Abstract

This paper presents method to suppress signal interference by using the filter in the RF output stage of the radiation equipment as a way to avoid interference between the RF(Radio Frequency) equipment mounted on aircraft. Especially filter design to suppress harmonics of the radiation equipment and testing method to verify the filter's performance is presented. Filter was installed at RF output stage of U/VHF radio in order to prevent interference between U/VHF(Ultra/Very High Frequency) radio and data link system. Filter design and testing method in this paper will be able to give help in the design of aircraft equipments as a tool that can be used to establish measures for problem of interference in the aircraft.

본 논문에서는 항공기에 장착되는 RF(Radio Frequency) 장비간의 신호 간섭을 방지하기 위한 방안으로 가해 장비의 RF 단에 필터를 사용하여 간섭 성분을 억제하는 방안을 제안한다. 특히 가해 장비에서 발생하는 고조파 성분의 억제를 위한 필터 설계와 필터 성능을 검증하기 위한 시험 방안을 제시한다. 필터는 U/VHF(Ultra/Very High Filter) 무전기와 데이터링크 시스템간의 간섭을 방지하기 위해 U/VHF 무전기의 RF 단에 설치하였다. 본 논문에서의 필터 설계와 시험 방안은 항공기에서 발생하는 간섭 문제에 대한 대책을 수립할 수 있는 도구로써 항공기 RF 장비 설계에 도움을 줄 것이다.
