For Chap. 4 presents many references. of electromagnetic shielding. either an individual who has only recently been introduced to shielding or to a design engineer, however, much of the literature appears to be Missing in the either confusing or poorly organized for design use. all the princiincluding graphs design useful of series a are literature Thus, this mamner. understandable clear, a in presented variables pal handbook on Shielding was conceived to fill these voids.

These topics are covered in Vol. 3 of the and where to ground a shield. Rather, this handbook explains shielding theory EMC Handbook Series. and performance and presents many design graphs of shielding effective~ ness vs frequency as a function of shield metal and its characteristics, and E and H-fields and plane waves.

Regarding the impedance of the fields (E, H, or plane waves), tie For exliterature and manufacturers' data are often very misleading. ample, since the wave and circuit impedance which produced the field .are interlocked and since a circuit impedance is not infinite, E-field shielding effectiveness data are generally optimistic (too high) relaIn a converse manner, H-field shielding tive to actual performance. effectiveness data are pessimistic (too low) since a magnetic source This handbook clarifies and quantifies circuit impedance is not zero. these points, Another example of possibly misleading information is the use of MIL-STD-285 to measure and report the shielding effectiveness of test The reference test distance per MIL-STD-285 items to E and H-fields. Thus, for installations located in the is one foot (0.305 meters). near field which are greater than one foot from an interfering source, actual E-field shielding performance will be less and H-field performance will be greater than that reported by MIL-STD-285 measurements. The converse applies for application distances between sources and metal barriers which are less than one foot away as illustrated in this handbook.

The appendices of this handbook are perhaps the most important of all material presented. They contain 42 pages of design shielding effectiveness graphs for several metals whose thicknesses range from 0.0001 mil (2.54 pm) to 1 inch (2.54 cm). For both near and farfield calculations and associated frequencies, the design graphs cover source-to-metal distances ranging from 10 cm to 10 km. Frequency coverage is from 10 Hz to 30 GHz. All data were run-off on the HP-65 programmable calculator. For those who have an HP-65, the program is presented so that they can develop and use their own magnetic card. There also exist many design graphs other than direct shielding effectiveness which the reader should find useful. The author of this handbook invites the user to communicate him. He especially invites comments, questions, or requests for further elucidation. December 1975 Germantown, Maryland

(HAPTER 1 SHIELDING THEORY Eighty per cent of this handbook is design data of shielding effectiveness vs, several variables including metal type, metal properties, thickness, distance, frequency, etc. Most of the design and applications data are presented in the appendices. Basics and fundamentals of shielding are presented in Chaps. 1 and 2. Chap. 3 covers information on how to use the design graphs in the appendices including constraints and illustrative examples. This chapter, Chap. 1, presents tutorial information on shielding theory and materials. This includes field theory, near and far-field definitions, wave impedance, metal barrier impedance, absorption loss, reflection loss, and overall shielding effectiveness.

FIELD THEORY

The purpose of this section is to present some relations about magnetic, electric, and electromagnetic fields as pertinent background to understanding and applying field theory.

Note

that

196 dB would never be obtained in practice because of the penetrations required into and out of the box (see Chap. 11, Vol. 3 EMC Handbook Series). Also note that the near/far-field interface (Rp = A/2m) exists at 38.2 m. Thus, the box is located in the far field of the transmitter and plane-wave conditions apply rather than E-field conditions.

Example

A ground-level nuclear detonation produces a broadband electromagnetic pulse (EMP) with most of its energy distributed in the 10 kHz band. From a distance of 5 km, the blast center looks like a magnetic source having billions of amperes. To protect electromagnetic equipment, specify the thickness of both aluminum and sheet steel to provide 300 dB isolation,
