The magnetic field probe based dipole moment method is recommended since it can be implemented without the presence of the actual aperture in the enclosure. It depends upon the magnetic field excitation at the location of the proposed aperture and the polarizability of the aperture which can be calculated given the orientation and the dimensions of the proposed aperture. However the limitation of this method starts when the length of the aperture begins to approach resonance. This paper presents the work done to extend this method to include resonating apertures in conjunction with resonating enclosures.","PeriodicalId":378094,"journal":{"name":"2004 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (IEEE Cat.

Spurious radiated emissions from various IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b, and Bluetooth devices are characterized using reverberation chambers. The results are compared with baseline emissions from standard laptop computers and personal digital assistants (PDAs) that are currently allowed to be used on aircraft. The results indicate that the WLAN devices tested are not more of a threat to aircraft navigation radios than standard laptop computers and PDAs in most aircraft bands. In addition, spurious radiated emission data from seven pairs of two-way radios are provided. These two-way radios emit at much higher levels in the bands considered. A description of the measurement process, device modes of operation and the measurement results are reported.","PeriodicalId":378094,"journal":{"name":"2004 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (IEEE Cat.

We have developed a thin-film magnetic field probe that has spatial resolution high enough to obtain the absolute value of high-frequency power current on an LSI chip. Spatial resolution was enhanced by miniaturizing the shielded loop coil, the detection part of the probe. The outer size of the new coil is 50/spl times/22 /spl mu/m. In taking measurements with the new probe over a 60 /spl mu/m wide microstrip line used as a device under test (DUT), we obtained a 6 dB decrease point of 40 /spl mu/m, which indicates the spatial resolution of the probe. This value is comparable to the typical width of power lines on an LSI chip, around 50 /spl mu/m and is less than half that of our conventional probes, around 90 /spl mu/m. In measurements with the new probe over an LSI chip, we obtained such a fine magnetic near-field distribution that the magnetic fields generated from the lines on the chip were separated. On-chip decoupling was also confirmed by using the new probe. The new probe enables direct verification of a circuit design for suppressing electromagnetic interference (EMI), while conventional coarse mapping of the magnetic near-field cannot be used to evaluate such conductive noise.","PeriodicalId":378094,"journal":{"name":"2004 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (IEEE Cat.

The applied approaches include analysis of possible noise sources in the microcontroller unit, reduction of core power supply coupling through high-speed PWB routing, application of low ESL decoupling capacitors, filtered connectors and the spread-spectrum clock generation (SSCG) technique. All approaches were validated by radiated emission measurements in a semi-anechoic chamber according to the CISPR 25 measurement technique.

Steel reinforcement in a structure can act as a Faraday cage that can mitigate the effects of lightning. An equivalent circuit lightning model (ECLM) of a strike's response in a steel reinforced structure has been developed using PSpice/sup /spl reg// (a commercial circuit simulation) where segments of rebar are modeled as inductors and resistors in series. Programs have been written to take the architectural information of a steel reinforced structure and create a circuit network that is analogous to the network of reinforcement in a facility. A current waveform representing a severe lightning strike is introduced in the simulated circuit network, and potential differences within the structure are determined using PSpice/sup /spl reg//. In order to validate the ECLM of a steel reinforced structure, high current pulses were injected into two-dimensional steel grids and potential differences across various nodes of the grids were measured. Grids were then simulated using the lightning circuit model to compare with measured potential differences. Validation tests of steel grids provide evidence that the ECLM agrees well with high voltage test measurements.","PeriodicalId":378094,"journal":{"name":"2004 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (IEEE Cat.
