Near-end scan different frequency magnetic field propagations in ideal DC source

I installed a simple PCB on Ansys siwave. I defined the power lines. And I defined an ideal voltage source that gives only 18 V on the pins. I set the near fields analysis as you can see. ...

E field probe or H field probe to detect

I have a board that is failing radiated EMC tests. There are narrowband spikes with 50 MHz intervals (300 MHz, 350 MHz, 400 MHz, etc.) I believe it has something to do with a clock (I suspect so since ...

How should I use characteristic mode analysis for antennas that are needed for near field imaging?

I am designing an electrically small microstrip patch antenna, and its "radiative" near field (r = wavelength) reaches quite long enough for the whole imaging region. Basically, I don't need ...

Why is the near-field radius of a small antenna lambda/2PI?

If I have a small antenna, the near-field is said to extend to \$\frac\lambda{2\pi}\$: The outer boundary of the reactive near-field region is commonly considered to be a distance of \${\textstyle {\...

Near Field from a Dipole Antenna

What are the equations defining the near field of a half-wave dipole antenna? What is the rate of decay of E-field and H-field in the near field (both reactive and radiative zones)? How are the ...

Near-field microwave antenna design

How to I design an antenna which produces a strong field within the antenna, but doesn't radiate out or reflect back to the source? (as much as possible) I'd like ideally to have a planar structure (...

Using a far field UHF RFID in the near field range

I have a 902 MHz to 928 MHz UHF 8dBi far-field RFID antenna connected to a reader. I want to read RFID tags. What will be the consequences if I used this UHF antenna in the near field range when it is ...

Does this sensor measure electrical or magnetic fields (with oscilloscope)

I want to measure electrical and magnetic fields of the frequency 50Hz to 1MHz with my oscilloscope. For electrical fields I learned that any bunch of metal will work. For magnetic field derivation ...

NFC standards ISO 14443, ISO 15693 and ISO 18000-3. Which of them are most supported by smartphones?

I want to do this: mobile app <-> NFC <-> microcontroller, in order the MCU can communicate with Android or iOS apps via NFC hardware. I have two options of low-cost NFC chips, these chips don'...

Prevent Reception from an Extended Distance (Beyond Design)

I have a magnetic field that is being induced onto a power line by a transmitter, which is following the length of the power line to the receiver. The receiver communicates via a loosely coupled coil ...

Why do LF RFID tags use near field and why is reading distance longer with UHF RFID?

Why do LF/HF RFID tags use the near field (magnetic coupling) and not the far field? Well, I guess it's easier. The two antennas can just be modeled as a "transformer" and power transfer is straight ...

Designing 60hz antenna to detect electric field

I am working on designing an antenna to detect 60Hz electric field. I came across the microstrip antenna being used to detect the field. Before designing the antenna I wanted to maek sure this is the ...

E fields and M fields in Near Field

I am reading a textbook that mentions that small loops with high dI/dt on a PCB tend to produce predominantly magnetic waves and stubs with high dV/dt tend to produce predominantly electric waves in ...
