Analysis of v Transmission Lines Response to External Electromagnetic Fields

Abstract

Abstract-In the present paper the response of V transmission line to electromagnetic illumination has been obtained. Also in order to determine the VTL frequency operation band for both TE and TM modes a Gaussian pulse source has been applied to the structure. The VTL structure has received considerable attention in high frequency and microwave IC packaging. The purpose of this study is to determine high frequency design considerations in order to reduce the effects of electromagnetic interference (EMI) on the VTL structure and maintain the desired performance. It was observed that the effect of incident EM waves on the V lines performance is considerably lower than conventional microstrips, however the V lines are more sensitive to sources at close proximity. In addition, although the V lines show lower dispersion at higher frequencies, their frequency operation band is limited by a resonance like behavior which is directly related to the V groove dimensions. The full wave analysis is carried out using the Yee-cell based 2 Dimensional Finite Difference Time Domain method (2D-FDTD), while enforcing a very stable and efficient mesh truncation technique.

Electromagnetic Field Intensity Generated by Partial Discharge in High Voltage Insulating Materials

“…A common way to study the propagation of EM radiation is using FDTD. This method has been used successfully to reduce the effect of EM interference and to achieve desired performance when analyzing a V transmission line line response to electromagnetic fields [15]. The FDTD method is used in this work to determine the radiation pattern emitted from PD events in HV insulating materials, originating from a fault like cavity.…”

Standard Smith Chart Approach to Solve Exponential Tapered Nonuniform Transmission Line Problems

“…Nonuniform Transmission Lines are widely researched in [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11], recently. In microwave design, the exponential tapered nonuniform transmission line (ETNUTL), one kind of nonuniform transmission lines, is useful in antenna matching section [12] and filter design [13].…”

Electromagnetic Susceptibility Model of Discontinuous Microstrip Circuits Under Plane Wave Illumination

“…With its advantages of simple algorithm and readily broadband analysis ability, the FDTD method is a good candidate among all the full-wave approaches [14][15][16][17]. FDTD method has been widely used to analyze interconnect structures especially in the solution of planar microwave circuits in the last two decades [18][19][20]. In FDTD, the lumped components are modeled as grid or sub-grid elements.…”
