Evaluation of Time Domain EM Coupling Techniques. Volume I.

Abstract

This research program investigated a new tool for the analysis of electromagnetic coupling and shielding problems: the finite-difference, time-domain (FD-TD) solution of Maxwell's equations. The objective of the program was to evaluate the suitability of the FD-TD method to determine the amount of electromagnetic coupling through an aperture into an enclosed conducting container and the interaction and coupling of the penetrating field with internal electronics. Two specific container models were used for the evaluation. The first, a conducting cylinder with one open end; the other, the guidance section of a missile. Each of these two configurations were modeled to calculate the electromagnetic field coupled into the structure. (Author)
