Differences between NSA 94-106 and IEEE Std. 299 Setups for Low-Frequency Magnetic Shielding Effectiveness Characterization: A Study Using Numerical Simulations KU Leuven
This letter employs simulation findings to demonstrate the practical reasons why the low-frequency magnetic shielding effectiveness is different when characterized using two parallel loops (NSA 94-106) or two coplanar loops (IEEE Std. 299). It is shown how the change in the loop’s radius impacts the shielding effectiveness for the NSA 94-106 setup rather than for the IEEE 299 one. The observation is rooted in the difference of the wave impedance ...
Application of a Testing-to-Failure Approach to the Susceptibility Assessment of Electronic Systems KU Leuven
The trustworthiness and safety of an electronic system can be compromised by a harsh electromagnetic environment. Additionally, an electronic system may experience various types of failures under electromagnetic disturbances, resulting in varying levels of (un)reliable operation. To address this, this paper proposes the use of a testing-to-failure approach for characterising the susceptibility profiles of a medical monitoring system as an ...
Electromagnetic Hazard Analysis Technique based on System-Theoretic Process Analysis KU Leuven
This paper presents a hazard analysis methodology based on systems thinking to address electromagnetic interference risks in complex systems. The proposed methodology extends the recently proposed hazard analysis technique System-Theoretic Process Analysis to include electromagnetic interference (EMI) hazards. This technique involves analysing the control structure of the system to identify potentially unsafe control actions. This paper focuses ...
Numerical Analysis of the Variability of the Shielding Effectiveness of Gaskets Characterized by the MIL DTL 83528G method KU Leuven
This paper provides an overview of some full-wave simulations that were conducted to investigate the variability in the shielding effectiveness of gaskets, when characterized by the MIL DTL 83528G method. In the simulations, the shielding effectiveness is calculated based on near-field sensors at different distances as well as far-field sensors which are basically at an infinite distance. Moreover, these sensors are placed according to a half ...

Characterization of Low Frequency Electric and Magnetic Shielding Effectiveness of Board-Level Shields using the Stripline Method KU Leuven
In this paper an overview is given on the characterization of board-level shields concerning their shielding effectiveness at lower frequencies (i.e., below 1 GHz). The method starts from the stripline set-up described in the SAE ARP 6248 standard used for the characterization of gaskets. If an appropriate source is used, the method can provide valuable information on the low-frequency electric or magnetic shielding effectiveness of board-level ...
Wide-band Characterization of Multi-Layer Coding Techniques to Achieve Electromagnetic Resilient Communication Networks KU Leuven
The detection and correction of errors in data transmission over safety-critical communication networks are of utmost importance. Unidentified errors can compromise the system’s functionality in the face of unexpected electromagnetic disturbances. Resilient communication networks are crucial for addressing the aforementioned phenomena. In this paper, a multi-layer coding technique, combining triple modular redundancy and Hamming coding, is ...
