Abstract
An important problem in electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) analysis is to determine the coupling of an electromagnetic field into a shielded cable. Using the transmission line theory (TLT), the disturbance voltage induced inside the cable is easily calculated from the current distribution on its shield. This current distribution depends on the incident electromagnetic field and is efficiently determined by the method of moments (MoM). Extending the MoM with the geometrical and uniform theory of diffraction (GTD/UTD) makes it possible to solve scattering problems that are too large and too complex for the plain MoM. The combination of the three approaches-TLT, MoM, and GTD/UTD-allows calculation of the disturbance voltage inside a shielded cable, which is part of a complex scattering structure. The fundamentals of each method and the way of putting them together are shown in this paper. The application of the proposed method is demonstrated by an example: the pulse coupling between a monopole antenna and a shielded cable is analyzed, taking into account a large conducting structure in the vicinity.
