The emission of EM noise depends on the transmission line structure and ground structure including the connection between the system ground (SG) and frame ground (FG). We applied the 3D-FEM analysis to the design of a thin film transistor liquid crystal display's (TFT-LCD) PCB. The calculation results were confirmed by experiments using model transmission lines. The 360 MHz noise emission from a strip line structure is about 1/10 of that from a microstrip line structure for a particular specification. Plural FGs generate loop currents and increase the noise emission. The distance between the noise source and FG is an important factor in deciding the noise emission.","PeriodicalId":296175,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130356852","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}

Manufacturers must build a single product that meets all the relevant EMC requirements no matter where in the world the product is marketed. This means that a single set of harmonized standards is highly desirable. Commercial-application EMC standards in the USA have kept pace with this growing trend. This paper make comparisons, where they exist, between USA and IEC standards to show the growing trend towards harmonization. This paper also presents activity in the United States in developing commercial EMC standards, especially in the area of methods of measurement. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in fact has adopted the ANSI C63.4 method of measurement for emissions while allowing the use of either the FCC Part 15 or the IEC/CISPR Publication 22 limits. Some of the major activities on immunity methods of measurement are reviewed. Finally, an update is included of relevant FCC actions as they relate to standardization.","PeriodicalId":296175,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123606323","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}

Recent COTS installations on military platforms have demonstrated both the expected performance and time-to-develop improvements as well as some unexpected problems due to electromagnetic environmental effects (E/sup 3/) emission or susceptibility problems. Rapid response electromagnetic interference (EMI) reduction teams have been able to successfully apply traditional DoD E3 installation and design techniques to restore (some of) the system performance. These lessons learned experiences have shown that program managers can neither ignore E/sup 3/ requirements nor simply specify existing commercial EMI requirements. In order to minimize the potential negatives due to the use of COTS equipment, it is necessary to analyze the causes of the existing problems and develop a methodology to minimize or eliminate similar E3 problems from occurring on future military platforms.","PeriodicalId":296175,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115864440","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 sources represent power supplies, transformers, and cables; the physical blockage is a cylindrical shell. The sources are modeled as vector fields in the magnetostatic limit. Boundary conditions applied at the outer and inner interfaces of the cylindrical shell require that the normal component of the B field and the tangential component of the H field be continuous at the outer and inner interfaces. The source fields are transformed to the coordinate system of the cylindrical shell, where the final solutions are given. The source fields are expanded in binomial expansions, and the response fields outside, within, and in the interior region of the cylindrical shell are expanded in Legendre polynomial expansions. Upon application of the boundary conditions, a system of linear equations is generated by matching powers of sine and cosine functions in the binomial and Legendre polynomial expansions. The solutions of this system of equations yield the coefficients of expansion of the Legendre polynomials. The number of equations generated depends on the extent of the expansions, which, in turn, depends on the accuracy that is required. After solving for the coefficients of expansion, the coefficients are substituted back into the Legendre polynomial field equations, and the gradients are taken to obtain the vector fields. These fields are then added to the source fields to obtain the final solutions.","PeriodicalId":296175,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"146 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134014027","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}

Excellent fits are obtained in the two applications considered. The model is intended for use in the characterization of absorber-lined chambers at low frequency.
