Abstract
This study evaluated the improvements for circuits of a combat vehicle distribution box to reduce the noise generated in electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing. An analysis of the distribution boxes that failed the standard revealed the conducted noise generated from the converter and semiconductor switching elements on the circuit board. The distribution box transfers power from the generator and battery to the cooling system of a combat vehicle to keep turning the air conditioner on and off. Two methods were proposed to overcome this problem: a passive filter was added to the circuit board for the first method, and the converter and switching elements were replaced with the relays for the second method. Both methods were effective in reducing noise, but a greater improvement was obtained from the second method. The second method was applied to a combat vehicle system and was found to be suitable according to the EMC standards.
