EMI Shielding for UAVs

Most unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) require communications with ground-based systems such as radio gateways. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can disrupt these communications, degrade the quality of global positioning system (GPS) reception, and interfere with the drone’s onboard compass, which is calibrated according to the Earth’s magnetic field. The causes of UAV EMI are numerous, but electrically conductive gaskets made of shielding silicones are part of the solution.What [...]
