arbcombo -- AB 32 Cool Cars – Evaluation of Electromagnetic Interference Due to Automotive Reflective Glazing
Posted: 19 Nov 2009 09:48:17
The Air Resources Board’s report evaluating the electromagnetic interference due to automotive reflective glazing as required under the Cool Cars regulation is now available. The report provides the findings of a test program to determine the impact reflective glazing has on certain portable devices such as cell phones, global positioning systems (GPS) and ankle monitoring bracelets. The results indicate that there are no effects from reflective glazing, and thus the Cool Cars regulation, on monitoring ankle bracelets or cell phone usage in an urban environment. Effects on GPS navigation units were observed, but these were completely eliminated by placing the device or an external antenna within a ‘deletion window’, that is, a relatively small section of the windshield manufactured without the reflective material. The complete report is located on the Cool Cars website at http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/cool-cars/cool-cars.htm You are receiving this single arbcombo email because you are a subscriber to or have made a public comment to one or more of the following lists: ccms, cool-cars, ms-mailings.
