Radiation Coupling Between Reverberant Cavities Through Cables

This paper addresses the contribution to enclosure shielding effectiveness (SE) of transmission via multi-conductor cable penetrations. We use antenna theory, the reciprocity theorem and electric field statistical power balance (SPB) theory to develop a fast, robust algorithm to calculate the coupling between reverberant cavities through cables. Validation of both mean shielding effectiveness predictions and electric field statistical distribution predictions are compared with published test data to show the present level of accuracy and reliability.
