Measurements and Power Balance Calculations of the Shielding Effectiveness of Partitioned Equipment Enclosures

Abstract

This paper presents calculated and measured Shielding Effectiveness data for shielded enclosures operated in the frequency range where the enclosure is reverberant. The calculated data are obtained from component measurements and are calculated using the Power Balance technique. The Shielding Effectiveness of the different cavities of an enclosure partitioned by stacked circuit cards is obtained.
