Identification of Potential Electromagnetic Disturbances at 2172 MHz in Autonomous EV Routes

The increased use of Autonomous Electric Vehicles (AEV) and wireless mobile and broadcast communication results in the potential electromagnetic (EM) disturbance of the off-board EM source into the electronics component of AEV. This potential EM disturbance may disturb the communication, navigation and surveillance functions in the AEV electronic modules. Therefore, it is necessary to plan a route that minimizes the potential EM disturbance by choosing a path with less disturbance of the EM field. This paper provides potential EM disturbance measurement results at 2172 MHz along a chosen path on the campus of a Research Centre in a suburb area of Jakarta. The chosen frequency is one of the frequency ranges mentioned in CISPR 25. The measurements were performed using a broadband field meter which gives the EM field strength along the chosen route. The results show that the measured potential EM disturbance values vary due to the surrounding vegetation, building and EM infrastructures.
