In doing so, an Equivalent Circuit Model (ECM) is used in order to model the various coupling paths. First, the elements of the ECM are assumed to be uniformly distributed and their exact values therefore not fully known. Afterwards, the impact of theses uncertainties on the cross-domain transfer function, i.e. the coupling from the digital domain – the aggressor – into the other more sensitive domains – the victims – is analyzed using Polynomial Chaos Expansion (PCE) in combination with a sampling-based technique known as Stochastic Testing (ST). This approach intends to account for not accurately known configurations of the RFIC and package. In addition, the PCE representation allows for conducting sensitivity analysis through the derivation of conditional variances, i.e. Sobol indices, and sensitivities. PCE in combination with ST offers an efficient way to analyze the coupling effects. Finally, an improved version of the original design is proposed using an empirical optimization approach based on the techniques described above.","PeriodicalId":426924,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility & Signal/Power Integrity (EMCSI)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128412462","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 method estimates the shielding effectiveness (SE) of the shield below and above the first resonance of a cavity formed by the BLS. The apertures of the BLS are modelled as antennas with known radiation efficiency. The estimation of the maximum field inside the cavity is used to calculate the magnetic currents driving the antennas above the first resonance of the cavity. Below the first resonance the field inside the cavity is estimated using the resonant LC circuit model. An approximated formula for the radiation of the uniformly placed apertures is developed. The worst case prediction is validated by the full wave simulation and also in measurement on a real BLS.","PeriodicalId":426924,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility & Signal/Power Integrity (EMCSI)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134510013","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}

Guidance for reducing the anisotropy based on the polarization-balanced antenna is also provided. We show that chamber isotropy is strongly influenced by loading such that an unloaded chamber can be considered as an isotropic environment, while a loaded chamber is more-or-less anisotropic depending on the amount of loading present. The loading of the chamber is crucial for wireless tests involving modulated signals. Its purpose is to create a flat channel, which enables successful demodulation of the signal without distortion. Consequently, understanding this effect is important in quantifying measurement uncertainty in loaded conditions.","PeriodicalId":426924,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility & Signal/Power Integrity (EMCSI)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133980630","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}

While providing necessary isolation from noise generated by other components, the power islands also experience increased inductance due to current crowding at the bridge. In this paper, the inductance at a port on the power island has been quantified. The variation of port inductance with the bridge width and slot/gap width has been studied. It has been demonstrated that the increased inductance adversely affects the effectiveness of decoupling capacitors. This necessitates more careful design of the decoupling capacitors to be placed on the power islands. To enable better design space exploration involving power islands, a methodology to model the inductance of power island ports has been described. To illustrate the effectiveness of the methodology, case studies are presented on (1) finding the region on the main power area with maximum isolation from the power island ports (2) quantification of the loss of decoupling effectiveness as seen by ports on a power island.","PeriodicalId":426924,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility & Signal/Power Integrity (EMCSI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128991537","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}
