| Abstract | Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) of a transit system is the absence of interference between all parts of the system, and between the system and the community which it serves. This report documents the EMC experience obtained during the design and development of the Morgantown People Mover (MPM) system in Morgantown, West Virginia. This report addresses background regarding the development of the MPM system and its current configuration as well as discussions pertaining to EMC. Conceptual and practical EMC requirement considerations and descriptions of the resulting requirements are presented. The analysis and testing performed to verify EMC is outlined and EMC problems unique to MPM are detailed. Refinement and extensions which might be considered for application to future systems are also discussed. |
