Following are abstracts of papers from previous EMC symposia, related conferences,
meetings and publications.EMCAB COMMITTEEBob Hunter, Consultant How Can I Get a Copy of an Abstracted Article?Engineering college/university libraries, public libraries, company or corporate libraries, National Technical Information Services (NTIS), or the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) are all possible sources for copies of abstracted articles of papers. If the library you visit does not own the source document, the librarian can probably request the material or a copy from another library through interlibrary loan, or for a small fee, you can order it from NTIS or DTIC. Recently it became clear that EMCABs were more timely than publications which were being listed in data files. Therefore, additional information will be included, when available, to assist in obtaining desired articles or papers. Examples are: IEEE, SAE, ISBN, and Library of Congress identification numbers. As the EMC Society becomes more international, we will be adding additional worldwide abstractors who will be reviewing articles and papers in many languages. We will continue to set up these informal cooperation networks to assist members in getting the information or contacting the author(s). We are particularly interested in symposium proceedings which have not been available for review in the past. Thank you for any assistance you can give to expand the EMCS knowledge base. EMC |

Proceedings of 3rd International Symposium on EMC, Beijing, China, May 21-24,
2002, pp. 91-94.
Abstract: Crosstalk or coupling characteristics between a cascaded line
with an abrupt step on the way and a straight transmission line of finite length
are discussed comparing measured and calculated results. To analyze the coupling
phenomenon, a modified telegrapher's equation including the effects of external
fields to the lines system is derived. The fields can be obtained by estimating
vector potentials of currents in the line and the terminal sections, where the
terminals are fabricated like a configuration as "via". A four-port
network expression on voltages and currents at each terminal is obtained from
solutions of the equation. Some experiments have been done to appraise the utility
of the theory used here by comparing transmission characteristics.
Index terms: Transmission line, cascaded line with different heights,
crosstalk effects, modified telegrapher's equation, experiment.

All are analyzed by the extended moment method. Theoretical calculation and
partial experimental results are compared and reasonable agreement is obtained.
The research provides the theoretical basis for practical design.

Abstract: The paper deals with a modified version of Fang-Mei's super-absorption
algorithm for the truncation of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain
(FDTD) meshes combined with an innovative low pass filtered algorithm to assure
numerical stability of the FDTD procedure for late time. The proposed method
is usually applied to analysis of slow-decaying transient problems, such as
the lightning or nuclear electromagnetic pulse interaction with a cable or complex
structures. Numerical results have demonstrated the efficiency of the proposed
method.

Abstract: The data rates and clock speeds of current
high-speed signals are increasing rapidly; consequently, not only the lossy
nature of FR-4 but also the lossy nature of good conductors, such as copper,
need to be taken into account in high-speed signal designs. In order to well
predict the loss caused by both dielectric loss and skin effect loss, a suitable
simulation tool is needed. A surface impedance boundary condition (SIBC) algorithm
was implemented in FDTD modeling herein to accommodate the skin effect loss
due to finite conductivity of good conductors. Good agreement between the FDTD
result and the measurements as well as the SPICE result was obtained for a 14
mils wide strip line.
Index terms: Simulation tool, FDTD modeling, skin effect loss, surface

Abstract: A method to make a CAD model of a vehicle
suitable for electromagnetic (EM) simulations is presented. Three different
EMC problems have been studied by using the derived CAD models in a Finite Difference
Time Domain (FDTD) program: first, the coupling between antennas mounted on
the vehicle; second, the locations of "hot spots", i.e. places with
high field strength inside the vehicle; and third, the E-field probed in a circle
around the vehicle. The agreement between simulations and measurements performed
in a semi-anechoic chamber was found to be satisfactory.

Abstract: The electromagnetic wave theory of Schelkunoff has been studied.
The condition of energetics and the reaction mechanism on depositing Ni-P alloy
are investigated. Moreover, the modified textile possessed of the duplex characterization
of absorbing and shielding effectiveness property is prepared by electro-less
coating. By analyzing three kinds of modified textile both in respect to microscopy
and characterizations testing, the preparation conditions of the multifunctional
and modified textile are put forward. The mol ratio of Ni2+ to H2PO2- in the
electro-less Ni-P alloy coating solution directly influences the phosphorous
proportion in the modified layer of textile. Three frequency bands are studied
in this paper: 30MHz ~ 1000MHz for SE, 12G ~ 18GHz and 100K ~ 1.5GHz for AE.
The maximum of corresponding results are Ð80dB (SE) at 265MHz, -24.67dB (AE)
at 15.2GHz and Ð12.28dB (AE) at 435.1MHz, respectively.

Abstract: Metal-coating plastics are being used as shielding materials
for electronic and information terminals due to their light weight. In this
paper, a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) algorithm was newly proposed for
analyzing the shielding effectiveness of metal-coating plastics in a broad frequency
band. The method was based on the derivation of a time-domain representation
of the surface resistance of an equivalent resistive film. The validity of the
proposed algorithm, for both far-field and near-field shielding, was verified
by comparing the calculated results with theoretical ones. Good agreement was
found between them when the size of the shielding material was sufficiently
large compared to the wavelength.
Index terms: Metal-coating plastics, shielding effectiveness, equivalent
resistive film, FDTD algorithm.

micro-strip transmission lines is proposed. Analogous to dielectric relaxation
considerations of Cole-Cole diagrams as applied to dielectric materials, a "reactive

Abstract: Heat sink is an indispensable component in an electronic device.
However, containing emission from heat sink is rapidly becoming a necessity
caused by higher power levels and faster clocking digital circuits. It affects
the sensitive circuit. In this paper, some grounding schemes of heat sink are
presented and calculated applying the FDTD method. It is shown that different
grounding points affect the electromagnetic characteristics of heat sink differently,
and more grounding points don't necessarily result in the improvement of electromagnetic
characteristics. Considering four grounding points, four edge centered ground
points are selected for little electromagnetic field.
Index terms: Heat sink, radiated emission, FDTD method, grounding effect.
