It has been proposed to replace the basis functions of VF (partial fractions) with an orthonormal set, leading to Orthonormal VF (OVF). A comparison between the VF and OVF methods was presented in a recent paper, claiming that OVF gives superior performance over VF. In this paper, it is shown that comparable results are obtained for VF and OVF if one uses the recommended set of starting poles, an adequate solver, and a column-scaling of least-squares (LS) equations. The same datasets are used to illustrate the result of both methods.","PeriodicalId":397061,"journal":{"name":"2007 18th International Zurich Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"180 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123718943","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}

Due to the low symmetry of PLC cabling, part of the injected common mode test signal is converted into a differential mode signal that interferes with the wanted signal at the input of the modem being tested. We show in this paper that the expected bit error rates due to the differential mode current from the CDN are of the order of 1×10−5 to 5×10−5, which can be handled by coding and MAC ARQ procedures. We also show that it is unlikely that the differential mode signals from the CDN#2019;s finite LCL will overload the modems.","PeriodicalId":397061,"journal":{"name":"2007 18th International Zurich Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"278 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116439351","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 measurement technique assumes a reverberant environment and the test frequency range spans 200 MHz through 10 GHz.

The PEEC method (partial element equivalent circuit) is an approach for transforming conducting objects into linear networks with basic electrical elements. Such equivalent circuit models can be simulated by conventional circuit solvers such as SPICE (simulation program for integrated circuit emphasis) based on the MNA (modified nodal analysis) approach. By applying appropriate sparsification techniques, sparse PEEC matrices can be obtained, adequate for iterative solvers. By using multi-level approaches, linear complexity w.r.t. time and memory consumptions can be achieved in the best case. Due to the fact that properties of PEEC matrices can differ drastically, we developed the automatic solver switching strategy α-SAMG. Its efficiency for PEEC matrices is demonstrated for seven practically relevant benchmark cases by comparison against standard solvers. In particular, it is shown that α-SAMG provides a robust and fast solution strategy.","PeriodicalId":397061,"journal":{"name":"2007 18th International Zurich Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"226 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131867295","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 formulation expresses the longitudinal current at height z’ as the channel-base current minus the overall longitudinal current change from ground surface to z’. In general, the longitudinal current change consists of two components, one of which is associated with the upward propagation delay (transferred charge density component) and the other with the radial corona current (deposited charge density component). For the original transmission line (TL) model, there is no radial corona and, hence, no longitudinal current change due to corona current. For infinitely large current-wave propagation speed (as assumed in the Bruce-Golde model), there is no propagation delay and, therefore, in this case the longitudinal current change due upward propagation delay vanishes. The new formulation allows one to gain new insights into the lightning return stroke process.","PeriodicalId":397061,"journal":{"name":"2007 18th International Zurich Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128692623","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 investigation indicated that the probability obtaining the optimum solution was majority. Therefore, to improve the estimation accuracy, we exclude the data that does not contain the range of standard deviation. The simulation using the calculated electric field was carried out. The imitated equipment was used as emission source, and the bilog-antenna was used as receiving antenna. The results indicated that the maximum deviation was reduced from 18 dB to 5dB.
