In both battle and test scenarios, naval ships need to be able to enter EMCON (Emissions Control) conditions. This can mean restricted emissions (no uniquely identifying transmissions) or no emissions at all (radio silence).

Signals travel a long way at sea, and out on the water there is nowhere to hide. EMCON is used to ensure the enemy cannot triangulate the signal source and the ship using radio direction-finding techniques. Since RF transmissions are less common in the middle of the sea, even a very low power and short duration signal can stand out and make the ship an easily locatable target.

An additional reason for restricting emissions can relate to HERO (Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance) requirements. This is known as HERO EMCON and is used to prevent ordnance systems from being inadvertently fired due to the effects of el...
