The U.S. Navy Combat Readiness Electromagnetic Analysis and Measurement (CREAM) Program

Abstract

The Combat Readiness Electromagnetic Analysis and Measurement program was established in 1977 as part of the total US Navy electro- magnetic interference control programme. The CREAM programme has the aims of reducing shipboard EMI by developing improved test equipment, and testing methodology for EMI detection, measurement and analysis together with training in their application by operational personnel. Brief details of the four test sets now under development via the CREAM programme are given.
