Abstract
This chapter aims at presenting the current international standards and the recent bibliography regarding the transient phenomena associated with space systems, with emphasis on the EMC requirements. The first section of the chapter focuses on the description of the physical mechanisms causing transient electromagnetic phenomena in space. The second section reviews the procedures proposed for testing the immunity of space equipment against these transients, as described in the current space standards and in recent bibliography as non-standardized testing procedures. Finally, the last section investigates possible mitigation approaches and design guidelines against these electromagnetic disturbances, essential for every space system designer.
