Penetration through Loaded Slots with Wire Bundles

• Adapt hybrid frequency domain methods for coupling characterization in presence of wire bundles through loaded geometries

• Develop an understanding of good shielding practices and relative levels of penetration among the various slots geometries

• Develop methods for equivalent circuit extraction

Coupling through Antennas

• Antennas are ‘doors’ to coupling from external excitations into structures

• For coupling studies, details such as wires, feed structures and loading are crucial

• Provide an understanding of coupling (in-band and out of band)

Long-Term ProblemsApplication of EIGER

• Analysis of complex coupling problems

• Use as a check on more problem-specific analyses

• Coupling to PC board traces, for example

Aperture Coupling to PCB Traces

• Analysis should include mutual coupling effects between traces.

• Requires efficient layered-media periodic Green’s function (Ewald acceleration, etc.).

Cable Coupling to PCB Traces

• Analysis should account for cable propagation to traces.

• Analysis should also account for aperture/cable radiation effects.

Coupling to PCB Traces

• Thevenin equivalent circuits can be obtained to model both aperture and cable penetration.

• Thevenin equivalent circuits model all EM effects up to the IC pin.

• This allows for convenient de-coupling between EM analysis and IC analysis.
