35、omagnetic test methods 4.1 General The electromagnetic performance of unbalanced cables (e.g. coaxial RF-cables) is determined only by the quality of the screen. In the case of balanced cables the electromagnetic performance is determined by the combined result of both unbalance attenuation and the
36、effect of screen(s), if any. The quality of the screen may be evaluated by the measurement of transfer impedance (clauses 6 and 7) or screening attenuation (clauses 8 and 9). The combined result of the unbalance attenuation and the screening attenuation (if applicable) may be evaluated using the cou
37、pling attenuation test method (clause 9). 4.2 Transfer impedance Z T and capacitive coupling impedance Z F Two important properties in characterising screening effectiveness of cables are transfer impedance Z Tand capacitive coupling admittance Y Crespectively capacitive coupling impedance Z F . The
38、se properties can be used to calculate the normalised screening attenuation in dB (see 4.4) The transfer impedance Z Tof an electrically short uniform cable is defined as the quotient of the longitudinal voltage induced in the outer circuit (environment) to the current in the inner circuit (cable) o

Z U IL T 2 1 = (1) where L coupling length I 1 U 2 Figure 1 - Definition of transfer impedance Z T The capacitive coupling admittance Y Cof an electrically short uniform cable is defined as the quotient of the current in the inner cir
40、cuit caused by the capacitive coupling to the voltage in the outer circuit, related to unit length (see IEC 61196-1, 12.1.2.1). Y I UL jC C 1 2 T = = (2) where C T through capacitance L coupling length I 1 U 2 C T Figure 2 - Definition of coupling admittance- 7 - EN 50289-1-6:2002 The through capaci

In order to have a quantity which is invariant on the permittivity and the geometry of the outer circuit and is also comparable to the transfer impedance Z Twe introduce the c
42、apacitive coupling impedance Z F . ZZZY F12C = (3) where Z 1 characteristic impedance of inner circuit Z 2 characteristic impedance of outer circuit Y C capacitive coupling admittance If there are no holes in the screen C Tand Z Fare zero. This is the case for a foil and for double braided screen co
43、nstruction. But in a single braided construction Z Tand Z Fare about the same and Z Fmust be taken into consideration. With electrically short cables, where wave propagation can be neglected, the transfer impedance can be simply obtained as measuring current and voltage. Therefore the transfer imped
44、ance is a suitable criteria to describe the screening effectiveness of electrically short uniform cables. IEC 61196-1 contains two methods - the triaxial and line injection methods - describing how to measure the transfer impedance of coaxial RF-cables. Clauses 6 and 7 of this standard extend these
45、methods for symmetrical and multi conductor cables as well. In addition this standard provides guidance on impedance matching circuits to be used if the cable impedance is different from the impedance of the test equipment. The triaxial method only allows measurements at low frequencies (max. 100 MH
46、z) while the line injection method applies for higher frequencies. 4.3 Screening attenuation With electrically short cables, where wave propagation can be neglected, the screening quantities related to unit length can be obtained as measurement values and directly used to calculate an induced distur
47、bing voltage. In the higher frequency range the transmission characteristics are dependent on the impedance and admittance per unit length as well as on the terminating resistors. The screening attenuation is a suitable criteria to describe the screening effectiveness of electrically long cables. Th
48、e screening attenuation is defined as the logarithmic ratio of the power fed into the cable and the radiated maximum peak power: a P P s feed rad = 10 10 log ,max (4) For electrically long cables - in a frequency range where the transfer impedance of the cable screen is proportional to frequency - t
49、he screening attenuation is length and frequency independent.EN 50289-1-6:2002 - 8 - The screening attenuation is related to the transfer impedance in one of the following ways: a) for a matched outer circuit (cable environment) for example in the absorbing clamp method (see clause 9 or IEC 61196-1, 12.4); a ZZ cZ TE rr s,matched far end near end = 20 10 12 12 log (5) T F TE Z Z Z = max (6) where “+“ applies for the near end “-“ applies for the far end Z T transfer impedance Z F capacitive coupling impedanc
