Abstract :
A new concept, "limited bandwidth of electrical interconnections," is presented and compared with the current "all-pass power and communications networks." Low-pass performance, with an adjusted cutoff frequency and cutoff slope, can be achieved in a new cost-effective way (compared to classical filters) through the introduction of electrical and magnetic losses in electrical lines and cables, and can be further enhanced by " interfacial resonance" effects and by a "simulated skin-effect coupled line." Typical design criteria, performance, and applications are presented, along with their industrial and economic significance for the EMC-system design of the future.
