Abstract¬—The protection against electromagnetic environment effects (E3) on system is becoming more important since the modern communication based on wireless technology is developing fast. The reduction of the electromagnetic interference(EMI)and ensuring compatibility for communication systems are included in this topic, and principally data links protection and terminals against the lightning and high-power electromagnetic pulse(HEMP)to obtain the normal operation of these sort of systems. The focus of this paper is on E3 analysis, designing and operating for protecting the electronic equipment and communication network system and its worthwhile in ensuring effective performing that mission in the complex of electromagnetic today (EME).
Key Words: electromagnetic environments (EME), electromagnetic environmental effects (E3), electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), high-power electromagnetic pulse (HEMP), communication systems.

1. Introduction

Today, the world is experiencing a revolution in information and becoming more and more dependent on electromagnetic performance. The universal reliance of electronics and electromagnetism civilian system or military instruments, besides in mission and safety-critical as applications of fundamental importance, brings the issue of protection versus electromagnetic environment effects(E3) into focus. The susceptibility of communication systems is either because of special interest or of information technology equipment (ITE) depending on access to the electromagnetic (EM)spectrum information processing or control functions, since this is easy to get involved with but hard to protect. The impact of electromagnetic interference (EMI)is caused by deliberating vulnerability, accidental
