Modern vessels and their problems in EMC - Examples in practice

This paper describes the fundamental problems of EMC on vessels. During the lasts years the size of electronic integration package on modern vessels is increasing with every new built ship. Due to this fact the EMC becomes a more and more important part of the whole building process. In this paper three examples in practice will be discussed (AIS reception problem, DGPS reception problem and satellite TV reception problem). At the end general hints are stated to avoid or reduce EMC problems.
