Cable Shielding for Electromagnetic Compatibility

The field of electromagnetic shielding is rapidly developing to anticipate and meet the needs of various modern electronics industries - from computers to cable television to telecommunications. And with the latest advances in shielding technology come questions about techniques, approaches, and economic benefits. Cable Shielding for Electromagnetic Compatibility has the answers professionals need. Author Anatoly Tsaliovich draws upon his thirty years of experience in the field to provide this complete, up-to-date reference guide to the fundamentals of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and cable shielding. This single-source volume integrates basic concepts with hands-on techniques and practical recommendations on a broad range of subjects, from electromagnetic energy coupling and transfer mechanisms in shielded cables and interconnections to design and selection methods of cost-effective optimal shields for interconnections at all levels: a single chip, a printed wiringboard, a cable and cable assembly, a shelf, a device, and up to complex networks. You'll find comprehensive coverage of the theoretical frameworks and practical applications of the major EMC technologies, as well as: The role of cables and interconnections in the electronic system EMC; How to implement a shielded cabling system in a wide range of consumer, military, medical and industrial applications; How the latest electromagnetic and physical designs of cable shielding meet the electronic system requirements; The latest shielding evaluation techniques and experimental EMC performance data. Cable Shielding for Electromagnetic Compatibility also offers step-by-step direction for the changing national and international standards, working plans for meeting specific design goals, and tested ways to ease the cost burdens of implementation.
