Transfer impedance of shielded cables is a main characteristic to describe cable shielding performance at least up to 1 GHz. Traditionally, a cable shield consists of a braid, a foil, or a combination of them. Braids have attracted a significant amount of research interest, while foils have not. Published studies have concentrated on cable shielding performance when cables are new. In this paper, a highly accelerated aging method for shielded cables is presented and applied to a cable made up of a combination of a braid and foil shield. Finally, the effect of aging on system performance during bulk current injection (BCI) tests is assessed by circuit simulation.
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.
