Shielding theory and practice

Abstract

Plane-wave shielding theory is developed and discussed for a number of important cases such as single, double, and laminated shields. For application to design, the basic expressions are modified and plotted with universal parameters for convenient use in performance calculations of both solid and perforated sheets. Performances of solid copper and iron shields have been calculated and are presented in both tabular and graphical form. For these and other materials, measurement results of various experiments are tabulated for a number of different material forms and for various incident-wave impedances. Some consideration is given to shielding discontinuities and trends in modern shielding enclosures.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
