The electromagnetic compatibility of equipments inside a space vehicle depends upon the shielding effectiveness of the space vehicle. Antennas mounted externally receives desired signals in the presence of interfering signals generated by equipments within the space vehicle. Such interfering signals penetrate the structure and are received by the external antennas. A mathematical formula has been developed to predict the shielding effectiveness, from inside to outside, of a space vehicle. Such a formula shows that the shielding effectiveness of such a space vehicle varies as the point of observation on the outside of the space vehicle is varied. A possible method of measuring the shielding effectiveness of a space vehicle is presented.
