Measurements indeed show that beyond the maximum operating frequency, transistors seem to exhibit RFI rectification, which is confirmed, with excellent agreement, by SPICE simulations. Transistors models used in these simulations are extracted from measurements, and include all the parasitic elements (package and circuit). After investigating transistors' internal currents, it appears that this rectification effect is not related to active nonlinearities of the device, but to the nonlinear capacitances of the transistors: the gate-drain overlap capacitance and, for the major part, to the parasitic drain-bulk junction capacitance. A simplified model reproducing this effect is presented, and the frequency range of occurrence of the RFI rectification is analyzed.","PeriodicalId":376960,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC EUROPE)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114332598","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}

Depending on the type of cables to be investigated, either FDTD/MNA or MTL/MNA approach can be recommended. In FDTD/MNA scheme 1D-FDTD method is applied to solve the transient response of a cable system, which is then used together with circuits of termination devices to simulate the complete network by modified nodal analysis (MNA). In the second scheme, MTL theory is used to extract equivalent circuit models of cables. All extracted equivalent circuits are then merged with termination devices and solved using specialized MNA-based circuit solver. Both methods are speed-oriented, provide accurate results and can be used for fast simulation of large-scale cable systems. Validation of the proposed methods is performed by comparison with measurements of high voltage shielded cable test setup. Two application examples demonstrate the potential of the proposed approaches for simulation of large-scale cable systems - automotive harness and office wiring network.","PeriodicalId":376960,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC EUROPE)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124294530","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}

Firstly, the unknown noise source is equivalent to a dipole array, and the magnetic field over the plane above the unknown noise source is scanned. From this information a set of linear equations is obtained for the solution of the dipole array. Next, in order to consider the multi-reflections between the unknown source and its nearby components on the same PCB, and also the possible nonlinearity interaction between the circuits and electromagnetic fields, the original dipole array equivalent source is extended to the equivalent source based on the ANN. A numerical example shows that the proposed ANN equivalent source can be better in predicting the shadowing effect of the components around the unknown EMI source. This study provides a novel possible solution for the EMI source reconstruction through the near-field scanning.","PeriodicalId":376960,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC EUROPE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125701372","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}

However, the location of the antennas is becoming increasingly interesting for operators of wind turbines. In order to be able to estimate the risk of wind turbines disturbing the antenna signals, many simulations and measurements have to be carried out.

However, most of those publications stay in the frequency lower than 20 GHz. With the development of high-speed communication and some new generation telecommunication technologies, the operating frequency is moving higher and higher. This paper investigates the radiated EMI from PCB edge up to 100 GHz, by using the full-wave simulation. To simplify the study, the PCB has been modeled as a two-dimensional (2D) approach by using periodical boundary. The impacts of different PCB parameters, such as the substrate thickness, dielectric constant, dielectric loss and multi-layers, have been studied in this paper, together with a 3D PCB model for reference. It's found that the PCB thickness and the dielectric constant affect the edge radiation a lot. For instance, the radiation of the PCB with 0.508 mm thickness increases by 0.06 dB/GHz, whereas the one with 1.524 mm thickness increases by 0.22 dB/GHz.","PeriodicalId":376960,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC EUROPE)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131824505","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}

A change in for instance the position or the twist rate of individual cables in a bundle might have an impact on crosstalk levels. Application of sensitivity analyses can indicate which model parameters are most sensitive, and in which cabling configurations. In this paper, the efficient Stochastic Reduced Order Models (SROM) method is used to perform such a sensitivity analysis. It is applied to two cable bundles with two and seven twisted wire pairs, respectively. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to determine the accuracy of the SROM method. The sensitivity of parameters like inter-pair and intra-pair separation distance and the twist rate is determined in two different cases. Moreover, the effects of bundle twist and cable meandering to parameter sensitivities is investigated.","PeriodicalId":376960,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC EUROPE)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133769283","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}
