The switch mode power supply is a source of EMI with other equipment as well as with its own proper operation because of rapid changes in voltages and currents within a switching converter. The EMI is transmitted in two forms: radiated and conducted. Conducted noise consists of two categories known as the differential mode and the common mode. Common mode noise current is a major source of EMI in the switch mode Power supply. Recently, a current balancing technique has been studied to reduce the common mode noise. This paper investigates the reduction of common mode noise according to a node expansion of the switch mode power supply which is based on a current balancing technique. In this paper, seven PCB patterns of the forward converter are manufactured and experimented.

Generally a return current plane(RCP) of high speed digital and analog part is partitioned. This is achieved in order to decrease the noise interference between subsystem in PCBs(Printed Circuit Boards). However, when the connected signal line exists between each subsystem, this partition will cause unwanted effects. In a EMI(Electromagnetic Interference) point of view, the partition of the return current plane becomes a primary factor to increase the radiated emission. Component bridge(CB) is used for the way of maintaining radiated emission, still specific user's guide doesn't give sufficient principle. In a view point of EMI, design principle of multi-CB using method will be analyzed by measurement. And design principle of noise mitigation will be provided. Generally interval of multi-CB is ${\lambda}/20$ ferrite bead. In this study, When multi-CB connection is applied, design principle of ferrite bead and chip resistor is proved by measurement. Multi-connected chip resistance$(0{\Omega})$ is proved to be more effective design method in the point of EMI.

The wave shapes of electromagnetic pulses radiated from lightning discharges are significantly changeable one of the topics concerning on EMI/EMC of modern electronic systems is the efficient and economic protection of electronic circuits against transient voltages caused by not only by cloud-to-ground lightning but also by intracloud lightning discharges. In this work, in order to obtain the detailed information about lightning electromagenetic pulses, the electromagnetic pulses radiated from intracloud lightning discharge processes were measured and analyzed statistically.

New methods are studied that can suppress EMI noises, especially common mode currents produced in the motor drive system. One is a packaging technique that forms power converters using a four-layer printed power circuit board. The other is a method based on the generation mechanism of common mode currents which was developed from experimental analyses. It is proved by experiments that the former can effectively control common mode currents, including radiated emissions, and the latter can suppress them without any compensators between the inverter and the motor.

The use of image planes can reduce effectively the radiated emissions from a printed circuit board. This work deals with the influence of image planes on radiation from current trace. The configu- rations of one and two layers of image planes on both sides of current trace are proposed. The radiated emissions of those configurations have been calculated by solving a set of electric field integral equations by the method of moments. The induced current distributions on image planes and the radiation patterns are analyzed for different configurations of image planes, the distance between current trace and image planes, and the frequency of signal current.

In this paper partial discharge were simulated by conducted particle, a fine protrusion, surface discharge, which could be easy accumulated charge and concentrated electric field in the model GIS. In this times this paper measured and analyzed the radiated electromagnetic waves by using spectrum analyzer and antenna ($30{\sim}2,000[MHz]$ for measurement of EMI EMC in accordance with occurrence and propagation of partial discharge. In the basis of this results, a novel UHF(Ultra High Frequency) spherical sensor is presented. The measured impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna is from 0.3[GHz] to 1.7[GHz]. Form results of this study, this antenna will be playing an important role for the sensor for insulation diagnosis system by UHF method of real site GIS and power equipment using $SF_6$ gas.

In this paper partial discharge were simulated by insulation particle which could be easy accumulated charge and concentrated electric field in the model GIS. In this times this paper measured and analyzed the radiated electromagnetic waves by using spectrum analyzer and antenna$(30\~2000(MHz))$ for measurement of$ EMI{\cdot}EMC$ in accordance with occurrence and propagation of partial discharge. This paper suggested the other method of detecting and estimating of partial discharge for insulation diagnosis of GIS being insulation particle by measurement and analysis of radiated electromagnetic waves. From results of this study, it was confirmed that if the suggested method should be used for the diagnosis of insulation in the model GIS being insulation particle, detecting partial discharge and estimating discharge propagation will be possible.

In this paper, the effect of the gap in the ground plane on the electromagnetic interference (EMI) is analyzed quantitatively. Because of a lot of advantages compared to other numerical techniques, the FDTD (finite difference time domain) is applied to the EMI effect modeling. The analyzed model is the simplified PCB (printed circuit board) which has a microstrip and ground plane. The inductance induced by the gap is modeled and calculated by gridding the whole PCB based on the FDTD algorithm. When external cables are attached to the PCB, the common-mode current is induced along the attached cable and the resulting electric field strength is calculated and presented along with the FCC and CISPR EMI limits. The results show that the radiated field strength highly depends on the size of the ground plane gap. The numerical simulation results can be used as a reference in the practical PCB design with the ground plane gap.

This study is about the limits of GTEM cell using correlation factor between the OATS(Open area Test Site) and the GTEM cell. First, the field strengths at the 10 m distance OATS and in GTEM cell to obtain the experimental correlation factor are measured. Also, the EMI limits of radiated power are derived in GTEM cell as 3 position method is inversely transformed. The field strengths that calculated from theoretical models by 3 and 15 position methods are programmed and compared with measured data at the OATS. As the EMI limits of GTEM cell is newly defined, it will be use to substitute GTEM cell for OATS to efficiently measure EMI(Electromagnetic Interference).
