This paper shows that the radiated fields from perforated plane shields excited by a circular loop are the same than those produced by one or several magnetic dipoles located on the plane of the apertures. The way to derive this equivalent model is based on an inverse problem using optimization methods and near-field calculation (method of moments) or measurements. The proposed approach allows to evaluate the shielding effectiveness of the perforated screens. All results are compared with experimental values to check the validation. Such equivalent models could be used to avoid meshing screens in case a 3-D problem involving an enclosure with arrays of apertures or to simplify EMC analysis of power electronic devices having shielded enclosures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
