Future aircraft and space systems will introduce a need for more sophisticated control and communication systems. Their design will be strongly influenced by several important factors: Use of sensors and video networks requiring greater bandwidth; Significantly increased use of computers and digital data transmission, also requiring greater bandwidth; Reduction of some inherent EMI shielding resulting from the increased structural use of composites to reduce vehicle weght; Frequent need for increased protection from Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI), Electro-Magnetic Pulse (EMP), and High Intensity RF (HIRF); Need for improved cost-effectiveness of maintenance. Over the last several years, it has become widely recognized that electromagnetic interference (EMI), electromagnetic Pulse (EMP), High-Intensity Radio Frequency (HIRF), and new threats, such as directed-energy weapons, can jeopardize the flight safety of vehicles equipped with Fly-By-Wire (FBW) systems, unless adequate shielding precautions are taken. This leads to weight penalties which can be avoided through implementation of Fly-by-Light (FBL) systems.
