Simulation of a mode stirred chamber excited by wires using the TLM method

Abstract

This paper presents the use of transmission‐line modelling ‐ time domain (TLM‐TD) method to analyse the fields in mode stirred reverberation chambers excited by wires. It will be shown how the fields inside the chamber are distributed for a large range of excited frequencies. The work intends to develop a numerical procedure to verify the effectiveness and usefulness of the TLM method to electromagnetic compatibility problems. The numerical model presented here is based on the classical symmetrical condensed 3D node. The simulations will be compared with method of moments results obtained in available benchmark data. Some comments are made on comparisons between the two techniques.
