Calculation and Analysis of Shielding Effectiveness of the Rectangular Enclosure with Apertures
Keywords:
Analytical method, numerical method, rectangular enclosure, shielding effectiveness, transmission line theoryAbstract
Based on transmission line theory, an approach which combines the analytical model developed by Robinson et al. and the model which analyses the shielding effectiveness (SE) of enclosure with an off-centre aperture or aperture array is presented. The model is more general than other methods and includes the incident wave with varied polarization angles and incident angles. It is quicker to calculate the SE with this model, which on the other hand enables to investigate the effect of important design parameters on SE. This model is validated by comparing the SE predictions with those from literatures. Different aspects’ effect on the SE are investigated such as aperture dimension, enclosure dimension, position of observation point, number of apertures, polarization angles, and incident angles, etc.
