Simulation of the conducted emc in spacecraft performance prediction : the ESA EMC computer programme

This paper describes the computer program, ESA-EMC, and its application in the case of the SIRIO-2 spacecraft. The advantages of this software are that it constitutes an interactive program, capable of being run on a mini-computer of the HP 21-MX type. The organisation of the program is such that simulation of configurations can be introduced by means of network topology, tabulated data, transfer function or state representation. The application of the SIRIO-2 spacecraft constitutes its valiadtion, and is detailed in the second half of the study.
