Abstract :
EMI due to common-mode currents on cables routed in automobiles was studied using a test device designed to mimic a vehicle. Both experimental work and finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) modeling were employed in this paper. The good agreement between the measurements and modeling results indicates that the numerical tools can be a useful aid in predicting vehicle-level EMI by developing vehicle transfer functions and measuring the module-level EMI characteristics on the bench top.
