Abstract

Electronic equipment and systems are operated in intelligent buildings in specific environmental conditions. When operated in these environmental conditions, they should most often stay in a state of fitness. This is the basic operation process state, also guaranteed by the application of redundancy of the technical solution. All electronic equipment and systems operated in this should exhibit electromagnetic compatibility – both externally and internally. The appearance of strong electromagnetic field pulses, generated by an interference source, can lead to a catastrophic damage to electronic elements, devices, subsystems and systems, which are used to control the living functions in an intelligent building. This elaboration contains basic considerations in the field of a reliability-operational analysis of electronic equipment and systems, which can be operated in an environment exposed to the impact of strong electromagnetic pulses. A radiation source of strong electromagnetic pulses uses directional and omni-directional antennas, which allow to appropriately direct the energy in order to incapacitate the aforementioned technical objects. A relationship graph was suggested for specified antenna characteristics, which made it possible to formulate a set of Kolmogarov-Chapman equations. This enabled the calculation of the probability values of staying in the states of: full fitness, safety hazard and safety unreliability.
