A method is provided that includes setting up a composite material structure under test (SUT) between a transmit coil and a receive coil. The transmit coil is driven with a RF signal over a plurality of frequencies, thereby causing the transmit coil to produce a magnetic field that by magnetic coupling through the SUT induces a voltage in the receive coil. The voltage in the receive coil is measured, and from the voltage, a measurement of attenuation of the RF signal caused by the SUT between the transmit coil and receive coil is produced. And an effective conductivity of the SUT is calculated from the measurement of attenuation.

Various embodiments for detecting a high Intensity radiated field (HIRF) in a line replaceable unit are provided. In an embodiment, the internal detector comprises a receiving means for receiving HIRF and generating an AC signal proportional to the HIRF, an RF filter configured to sample the AC signal to create a DC signal; and a detecting section configured to compare the DC signal with a threshold and output a result of the comparison to a built-in test section.

摘要:
A grouping unit groups closely arranged wirings to be protected from among a plurality of wirings to be protected by means of a shield and arranged on a circuit board. A division unit divides, for each of the grouped groups, a region around the group on the circuit board into a plurality of divided regions. A determination unit determines the existence of a shield for each of the divided regions.
摘要:
A test architecture performs calibration and site verification testing of the effectiveness of a radiation shielding structure within which electronic equipment is housed. An external subsystem is outside a shielding cabinet, and an internal subsystem resides with the electronic equipment within the shielded equipment housing proper. The external subsystem includes a host computer, which controls the operation of transmit and receive subsystems. An external receiver is selectively coupled by the host processor to either an RF receive antenna or to a current sense probe. All control signals from the external subsystem are conveyed into the shielded cabinet by way of fiber optic links, in order to preserve the shielding effectiveness of the cabinet. Having the source of test signals and its associated transmission antenna located within the shielded cabinet serves to minimize the impact of such signals on circuits within the environment outside the cabinet.
摘要:
A system and method for continuously monitoring the shielding effectivenessf an electromagnetically shielded enclosure is disclosed including an RF transmitter positioned remote from the shielded enclosure. RF signals emitted from the remotely positioned transmitter are received by both an enclosure receiver positioned inside of the enclosure and simultaneously by a reference receiver having its antenna positioned outside of the shielded enclosure. These two received signals are mixed so as to produce IF signals which are subsequently forwarded to a synchronous detector which determines the ratio of the two signal levels by comparing their strengths. This ratio is indicative of the enclosure's electromagnetic shielding effectiveness. If the effectiveness drops below a predetermined or threshold limit, such is determined by a comparator positioned within the enclosure and an alarm may be sounded so as to indicate that the shield is failing. Accordingly, the effectiveness of the electromagnetic shield may be monitored twenty-four hours a day. It is also noted that the remotely positioned transmitter may be that of an existing radio station according to certain embodiments of this invention.
摘要:
An apparatus (30) locates and measures any seam or other discontinuity (18) within a metal enclosure (10) by determining the characteristic inductance of the discontinuity. A pair of probes or electrodes (40, 42) are connected via a balun (46) to a network analyzer (56). When the probes are placed on either side of the discontinuity, the network analyzer can measure the length of the discontinuity by equating the discontinuity to an inductor.
摘要:
A method for determining the electromagnetic RF shielding effectiveness of a shielding enclosure including sequentially driving the four diagonally opposite corner pairs of the enclosure with a RF signal, measuring the RF energy leakage for each corner pair, and averaging the four measured RF leakage levels to obtain an average RF energy leakage level. This average RF energy leakage level may then be compared with prior (preferably immediately after manufacture) measured average RF energy leakage levels to obtain an indication of the RF energy shielding effectiveness lost, if any, during the time from the prior test to the current test.

A high frequency electromagnetic field detector for detecting high frequency electromagnetic fields comprises a micro antenna for mainly receiving the induction term of the electromagnetic field, an amplifier for amplifying a voltage induced on the antenna, a comparator circuit for comparing the output of the amplifier with a predetermined reference level to output a signal indicating that the output exceeds the reference level, and an indicator in response to the signal from the comparator circuit for indicating it.
