Antenna

With the advent of wide-spread wireless electronics, the need for high-performance RF components to be built into highly reliable and robust products continues to expand.

Wireless devices are now in the legislative spotlight the world over. Safety, performance, spectrum usage and protection of personal data are all matters of regulation, although countries vary in how they regulate such concerns. This article looks at Australia as a case study, reviewing the overarching legal framework, the role of the national regulator, conformity assessment and the use of standards.

This two-article series is devoted to a dipole family of antennas used in EMC testing: half-wave dipole, quarter-wave monopole, log-periodic, and biconical antenna.

In this second part of a two-part article, we’ll discuss the use of radio modules to enable wireless connectivity of electronic and consumer products, and how to approach radio, EMC and safety regulatory approvals in the European Union for radio modules and equipment which contain radio modules.

The goal of this paper is to investigate fundamental mathematical and statistical algorithms for the spatiospectral analysis of electromagnetic coupling in large, complex electronic systems. A novel stochastic Green’s function and a statistical representation formula are proposed, which statistically replicates the multipath wave-chaotic dynamics inside cavity environments. The work achieves a physics-based modeling and simulation capability that predicts the probabilistic behavior of high power radio-frequency induced current and voltages in complex electronic systems.
