Spectrum Supportability and E3 Relationship E3 SS SSRA E3 Assessment ESC HNC Access
Spectrum Supportability Addresses the availability of sufficient electromagnetic spectrum for the development, training, and compatible operations of spectrum dependent systems in their intended operational environment.Spectrum supportability Risk Assessments are required by DoDI 4650.01 at Milestones Vision: All systems fielded can obtain spectrum assignments and operate in such a way as to provide the capability (to the warfighter) needed when the requirement was generated
Spectrum Supportability Risk Assessment A Process, Not an Event Risk Identification Risk Tracking Risk Analysis Risk Mitigation Planning Risk Management Implementation • Risk Evaluation • Required on all Spectrum-Dependent systems. • Identify and assess EM spectrum and E3 issues affecting operational performance • Assessments and mitigation plans are reviewed at milestones

Mitigating EMI and EMC Problems Best Prevention is Prototype Testing so all parameters are known before production. If further EMI reduction is needed, these fixes will help. Bonding and Grounding of equipment, cable shields, spare conductors, metallic conduit, junction boxes, non-linear joints in vicinity of RF transmitters, etc. Separation of source and victim equipment, cables, etc. Ferrite Beads around conductors that are causing interference Filtering of power supplies, receive antenna transmission lines, modulation inputs, etc. Shielding of cables and conductors, enclosures, etc. Optimal Spectrum Management to be assigned the best frequency(ies), bandwidth, and modulation characteristics for the application.
