Systems and methods for testing susceptibility of aircraft components to radio frequencies

摘要

An apparatus for testing for the susceptibility of an aircraft system to radio frequencies comprises a wireless module for generating radio signals that sweep each of the 2.4 GHz frequency band and the 5 GHz frequency band. A first amplifier is configured for amplifying signals in the 2.4 GHz band, and a second amplifier is configured for amplifying signals in the 5 GHz band. The apparatus comprises at least one dual band antenna for transmitting the signals in each of the 2.4 GHz and the 5 GHz bands.
