Electromagnetic Shielding

The definitive reference on electromagnetic shielding materials,configurations, approaches, and analyses This reference provides a comprehensive survey of options forthe reduction of the electromagnetic field levels in prescribedareas. After an introduction and an overview of availablematerials, it discusses figures of merit for shieldingconfigurations, the shielding effectiveness of stratified media,numerical methods for shielding analyses, apertures in planar metalscreens, enclosures, and cable shielding. Up to date andcomprehensive, Electromagnetic Shielding: * Explores new and innovative techniques in electromagneticshielding * Presents a critical approach to electromagnetic shielding thathighlights the limits of formulations based on plane-wavesources * Analyzes aspects not normally considered in electromagneticshielding, such as the effects of the content of the shieldingenclosures * Includes references at the end of each chapter to facilitatefurther study The last three chapters discuss frequency-selective shielding,shielding design procedures, and uncommon ways ofshielding--areas ripe for further research. This is anauthoritative, hands-on resource for practicing telecommunicationsand electrical engineers, as well as researchers in industry andacademia who are involved in the design and analysis ofelectromagnetic shielding structures.
