Applied Electromagnetics and Electromagnetic Compatibility deals with Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), which is the reception of undesired radio signals originating from digital electronics and electronic equipment. With today's rapid development of radio communication, these undesired signals as well as signals due to natural phenomena such as lightning, sparking, and others are becoming increasingly important in the general area of Electro Magnetic Compatibility (EMC). EMC can be defined as the capability of some electronic equipment or system to be operated at desired levels of performance in a given electromagnetic environment without generating EM emissions unacceptable to other systems operating in the vicinity.

This totally revised and expanded reference/text provides comprehensive, single-source coverage of the design, problem solving, and specifications of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) into electrical equipment/systems-including new information on basic theories, applications, evaluations, prediction techniques, and practical diagnostic options for preventing EMI through cost-effective solutions. Offers the most recent guidelines, safety limits, and standards for human exposure to electromagnetic fields! Containing updated data on EMI diagnostic verification measurements, as well as over 900 drawings, photographs, tables, and equations-500 more than the previous edition-Electromagnetic Compatibility: Principles and Applications, Second Edition:

This book covers the basic electromagnetic principles and laws from the standpoint of engineering applications, focusing on time-varying fields. Numerous applications of the principles and law are given for engineering applications that are primarily drawn from digital system design and electromagnetic interference (Electromagnetic Compatibility or EMC). Clock speeds of digital systems are increasingly in the GHz range as are frequencies used in modern analog communication systems. This increasing frequency content demands that more electrical engineers understand these fundamental electromagnetic principles and laws in order to design high speed and high frequency systems that will successfully operate.

Unlike other publications, this new book offers a different approach to the study of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). It emphasizes the understanding of relevant electromagnetic interactions in increasingly complex systems. Mathematical tools are introduced when pursuing the physical picture unaided becomes counterproductive. In order to handle complexity, numerical tools are developed and the basis and capabilities of these tools are presented. Part I of the book covers underlying concepts and techniques. This includes discussions on electromagnetic fields, electrical circuit components, and electrical signals and circuits. The second part deals with general EMC concepts and techniques and will be useful for predicting the EMC behavior of systems. More practical techniques used to control electromagnetic interference and the design of EMC into products are presented in Part III. The main EMC standards and test techniques are described in the final part of the book. Chapters are designed to allow readers to study the entire book at a pace which reflects their own background and interests. The book appeals to both EMC applications-oriented and analysis-oriented readers. This text provides useful source material for a serious study of EMC, including references to more advanced work.

This introductory text provides coverage of both static and dynamic fields. There are references to computer visualisation (Mathcad) and computation throughout the text, and there are Mathcad electronic books available free on the Internet to help students visualise electromagnetic fields. Important equations are highlighted in the text, and there are examples and problems throughout, with answers to the problems at the back of the book.

An essential guide and learning tool for avoiding costly post-design electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) fixes, this book presents critical information on how to achieve electromagnetic compatibility right from the start. Prepared in a concise easy-to-use format, this book is an excellent reference for practicing engineers and textbook for engineering students who need a thorough introduction to the form and function of EMC and its relevance to systems in a variety of fields. "Engineering Electromagnetic Compatibility" provides a solutions-based, mathematically oriented treatment of the underlying theories and the most recent practical applications.
