A case scenario is developed to demonstrate that the method previously introduced by the authors for particular orientations (parallel and perpendicular) can be effectively extended to arbitrary orientations with good accuracy. The variation of mutual inductance as a function of the angle between the inductor axes is also examined. Furthermore, the study highlights the advantage of employing a comprehensive model that accounts for both primary and secondary coupling surfaces, leading to improved accuracy in determining the global equivalent mutual inductance compared to models that consider only the primary surface. Regardless of orientation, the proposed model provides a computationally efficient and accurate alternative to full-wave simulations for analyzing near-field magnetic coupling between horizontal inductors.","PeriodicalId":100625,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Letters on Electromagnetic Compatibility Practice and Applications","volume":"8 1","pages":"11-16"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147579034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional monitoring and inspection methods, which have been carried out by human intervention, are not able to give the desired success criteria for accuracy in a reasonable confidence level due to the complexity of the electronic system’s susceptibility. With this study, an experimental convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture, which is to learn from the equipment under test (device(s) under test) operational behavior by training and detection of several events, including failure modes in a high-speed scan rate, is introduced. An automatic event detection and diagnosis model is successfully designed and then evaluated. The outcomes of this work demonstrate accurate and high-speed EMI monitoring, and event classification is achievable by the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":100625,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Letters on Electromagnetic Compatibility Practice and Applications","volume":"8 1","pages":"28-33"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147578995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The bandpass FSS comprises a square-shaped slot etched on 0.254-mm-thick FR-4 substrate with single-sided copper cladding. The proposed bandpass layer operates at 10.1 GHz, and its transmission characteristics are further explained through an equivalent circuit model. The FSS maintains a stable angular response for incident angles up to 70° and performs effectively under bending up to 180°. In addition, when integrated with a patch antenna, the cylindrically bent conformal FSS introduces a minimal distortion to its far-field characteristics. Due to these attributes, the proposed bandpass FSS can be used for conformal and flexible electromagnetic applications.","PeriodicalId":100625,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Letters on Electromagnetic Compatibility Practice and Applications","volume":"8 1","pages":"22-27"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147578983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this, this letter presents a spoof surface plasmon polariton-integrated DGS (SSPPI-DGS). By embedding periodic SSPP units into the ground plane, the proposed design exhibits enhanced slow-wave characteristics and strong field confinement, as confirmed through dispersion analysis. Simulated and measured results further validate that the SSPPI-DGS achieves significant suppression of both near-end and far-end crosstalk, with reductions of up to 6–7 dB at fundamental frequencies, while simultaneously lowering radiation loss and insertion loss compared with the conventional DGSs. In addition, the proposed unit cell occupies a smaller footprint, enabling improved integration density. These findings highlight the SSPPI-DGS as a practical and scalable solution for future low-EMI, high-integration microwave circuits and system-on-package applications.","PeriodicalId":100625,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Letters on Electromagnetic Compatibility Practice and Applications","volume":"8 1","pages":"7-10"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147579027","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

TSSR is characterized by inner-layer lines and vias, and this letter discusses its application effects. Under the two constraints of high routing density near the synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM) and the necessity to wire across multiple layers, this letter addresses the challenge of improving signal integrity. The effectiveness of the proposed TSSR is analyzed by simulating a simple state in which the ball gird array (BGA) pads are connected to the top of the vias. This letter demonstrates the effects of the proposed routing structure on frequency characteristics and eye diagrams and outlines the flow for realizing this in product design. This approach is particularly beneficial for industrial equipment, where long via lengths and layer selection constraints often cause signal integrity degradation. TSSR proposed in this letter contributes to the design of memory down systems, which offer high routing flexibility for component manufacturers.","PeriodicalId":100625,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Letters on Electromagnetic Compatibility Practice and Applications","volume":"8 1","pages":"17-21"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11251372","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147579021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
