Most of the breakdowns and malfunctions of the electrical and control systems inside or in the vicinity of wind turbines are caused by ground potential rise due to lightning current flowing into the foundation with grounding electrodes and wires consisting of the wind turbine grounding system. To clarify the transient characteristics of the wind turbine grounding systems and to understand the mechanism of the breakdowns and malfunctions, we have carried out field tests. In this paper, the measurements and analyses of the transient grounding characteristics carried out at a wind turbine site are described.","PeriodicalId":279929,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)","volume":"s3-42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130189491","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}

An effective roughness dielectric (ERD) model can be used to substitute an inhomogeneous interface between copper foil and laminate dielectric in a PCB. Herein, this approach is tested for verification using 3D full-wave numerical simulations. These effective roughness dielectric layers with the appropriate complex permittivity are included in the modeling of stripline examples. The parameters of an ambient laminate dielectric free of conductor roughness effects in the stripline are determined using differential extrapolation roughness measurement teachnique (DERM). The agreement of the results of 3D full-wave modeling simulations with the proposed approach and measurements justifies the proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":279929,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130671243","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}

In addition, the transferred ESD pulse is analyzed in the frequency-domain. We compare the resonant frequency of the WPT system with the frequency of the transferred ESD pulse, and analyze the relationship between the two frequencies.","PeriodicalId":279929,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125267717","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 roundness measurement uncertainty due to test cable routing is investigated in this paper. Simulations on GSM, TD-SCDMA, WCDMA, wireless local area network (WLAN) and long term evolution (LTE) system have been done for eight kinds of testing cable routing influence for the indoor antenna roundness of horizontal pattern. By analyzing typical cases of ripple measurement, it is found that some kinds of testing cable routing could influence the roundness of antenna horizontal pattern significantly. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that straight or spiral ripple has little influence for the antenna roundness measurement. This work will help standardize the measurement setup for the omnidirectional antennas.","PeriodicalId":279929,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126302203","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}

Some signal integrity techniques are used to improve link performance to compensate for loss, such as TXLE and receiver equalization using CTLE and DFE. When these techniques are used they also impact crosstalk. In this paper, impacts on crosstalk are studied for various factors including phase difference among aggressors and victim, jitter, and bit rate. TXLE of aggressors are studied in detail with several cases. Receiver equalization using CTLE and DFE is included to reveal how RX equalization responds to the crosstalk from aggressors. Observations are made through this study to guide future signal integrity simulation and design to properly control the crosstalk.","PeriodicalId":279929,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126451569","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}

This paper summarizes the results of the survey. Given the amount of time and money spent annually for the type of testing considered, the results suggest that pursuing improvements will result in a long term savings for the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), suppliers, and labs involved. In order to increase test efficiency, the OEMs, suppliers, and laboratories will need to work together to better prepare test plans and test setups.
