Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from Radio Wave Sources
1.T
he rapid development of electronics, especially in the area of communications, has
saturated our environment with electromagnetic (EM) radio waves that are emitted
by television, radio and communication signals. These EM wave are invisible and
their strength increases as one approaches the source. All electrical conductors act
as antennas to the EM signals and, to varying degrees, all power wheelchairs and
scooters are susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI). The interference
could result in abnormal, unintentional movement and/or erratic control of the
vehicle. The United States Food and drug Administration (FDA) suggests that the
following statement be incorporated to the user’s manual for all power wheelchairs
like the HP6R
2.Be aware of nearby transmitters such as radio or TV stations and try to avoid
coming close to them.
