Abstract :
Contained herein is a discussion of a revised method for characterizing a building´s shielding effectiveness as it pertains to electromagnetic interference (EMI) effects on electronic systems. Empirical test data taken with a continuous wave (CW) source on a reconfigurable building is presented and compared with simulated data which was generated using the Method of Moments code known as NEC.
