Extension of the BLT Equation to Incorporate Electromagnetic Field Propagation

Abstract

A modified BLT equation, taking into account EM field propagation paths in addition to the usual transmission line propagation mechanisms, has been developed. This required modifying the BLT propagation matrix to include the field coupling to the transmission line and the EM scattering from the line. These features have been illustrated with a very simple example. The next step in this development will be to include the more general case of EM shields with apertures, and multiple field paths.
