Electromagnetic Radiated tests were made on Jason-2

Jason-2 underwent electromagnetic Radiated tests (satellite resistance to inside electromagnetic radiations: none of the equipment disturbs or is disturbing the others). Initial performance tests, mechanical tests (vibrations, acoustic, shocks, solar panel deployment) were previously performed. The next tests are conducted EMC mid October (Measure of the electromagnetic emission from the instruments and satellite's internal cables, and check of their lack of susceptibility for these emissions), and Thermal Vacuum in November (satellite resistance to temperature variations and extreme temperatures; thermal control functionning and size)
