Abstract :
The shielding effectiveness of an expanded copper foil was tested with three different methods in order to investigate the behavior of the material in different electromagnetic environments over a wide frequency range. The scope of the tests was to better understand and model the shielding performances of materials when used in non conventional environments and situations, including aeronautic applications.
