Electromagnetic compatibility electric vehicles inductive wireless charging automotive Ethernet

The rapid evolution of electric and autonomous vehicles has introduced unprecedented electromagnetic, thermal, computational, and communication complexities within automotive platforms. Electrified propulsion, inductive wireless power transfer, high-speed automotive Ethernet, advanced driver-assistance systems, and sensor-rich autonomous architectures collectively intensify electromagnetic interference risks while demanding stringent regulatory compliance and reliability. This study develops a comprehensive, system-level analytical framework integrating electromagnetic compatibility standards, heating and cooling system design, wireless charging architectures, onboard Ethernet shielding strategies, and intelligent control techniques including fuzzy sets, fuzzy-tree modeling, and particle swarm optimization. Drawing exclusively from established standards and foundational works in electromagnetic compatibility, fuzzy logic, optimization, and automotive systems, this research synthesizes theoretical insights into a cohesive design methodology.

The article critically evaluates regulatory and standardization structures governing vehicle electromagnetic behavior, including CISPR 12, CISPR 25, CISPR 36, ISO 7637 series, and European vehicle type-approval directives. It explores how inductive wireless charging systems and 10G automotive Ethernet exacerbate radiated and conducted emissions, and how shielding and topology-based mitigation approaches can restore compliance. Intelligent modeling techniques are applied conceptually to manage uncertainty in interference-prone environments, particularly for ultrasound-based obstacle detection under electromagnetic disturbances and compressed video transmission for autonomous platforms.

Results demonstrate that electromagnetic resilience must be addressed as a cross-domain optimization problem rather than a component-level afterthought. The proposed unified framework emphasizes proactive EMI anticipation, impedance management, shielding validation, thermal-electromagnetic co-design, and intelligent adaptive control. The discussion elaborates on regulatory challenges, design trade-offs, scalability, and the growing convergence between electromagnetic compatibility and autonomous system reliability. This work contributes a theoretically exhaustive, publication-ready foundation for future interdisciplinary research in electromagnetically robust electric and autonomous vehicle design.
