Key word: Electromagnetic screen; Shielding material; Shield potency
Introduction
In the last few years, along with the electromagnetic compatibility work’s development, the electromagnetic screen technology applies more and more widely. To have a more thorough understanding to the electromagnetic screen technology, must to the shielding material performance and the application situation, the shield technology matters needing attention, the shield potency examination as well as the privileged sites shield measure and so on carries on a more thorough discussion.
1 electromagnetic screen technical principle
The electromagnetic screen is one of electromagnetic compatibility technology key measures. Namely seals up with the metallic shield material the electromagnetism noise source, causes its exterior electromagnetism field intensity to be lower than the permissible value one measure; Or seals up with the metallic shield material the electromagnetism sensitive electric circuit, causes its internal electromagnetism field intensity to be lower than the permissible value one measure.
1.1 electric shields
Will bring the positive electricity conductor with the complete metallic shield body to surround, will be shielding body’s inside to induce with the charged conductor isometric negative charge, the flank appears with the charged conductor isometric positive charge, if metallic shield body earth, then the flank positive charge will flow in the earth, the flank will not have the electric field existence, namely the belt positive electricity conductor’s electric field is shielded in metallic shield in vivo.
1.2 alternating electrical field shield
In order to reduce the alternating electrical field to the sensitive electric circuit’s coupling disturbing voltage, may establishes the electrical conductivity good metallic shield body in noise source and between the sensitive electric circuit, and metallic shield body earth. The alternating electrical field is decided to the sensitive electric circuit’s coupling disturbing voltage size by the alternating electrical field voltage, the coupling capacity and product of the metallic shield body earth resistance. So long as tries to cause the metallic shield body good earth, can cause the alternating electrical field becomes to the sensitive electric circuit’s coupling disturbing voltage very small. The electric field shield reflects primarily, therefore shields body’s thickness not to need to be oversized, but take structural strength as main consideration factor.
1.3 alternating magnetic field shield
The alternating magnetic field shield has high frequency and the low frequency division. The low frequency magnetic screen is uses the high magnetic conductivity the material to constitute the low magnetic resistance circuit, causes the majority of magnetic fields to concentrate is shielding in vivo. Shields body’s magnetic conductivity to be higher, thickness is bigger, the magnetic resistance is smaller, magnetic screen’s effect is better. Certainly must be coordinated with equipment’s weight. The high frequency magnetic field’s shield uses the turbulent flow reversing magnetic field which the high conductivity the material produces to counter-balance disturbs the magnetic field to realize.
1.4 alternation electromagnetic field shield
Generally uses the conductivity high material to do shields the body, and will shield the body earth. It is uses the shield body to produce the reversed direction turbulent flow magnetic field and the self-magnetic field counter-balance under the high frequency magnetic field function weakens the high frequency magnetic field the disturbance, realizes the electric field shield because of the shield body earth. Shields body’s thickness not to need to be oversized, but take skin depth and structural strength as main consideration factor.
2 shield potency computation
Shield potency (SE) the definition is: The identical place is unshielded after the electromagnetic field the electromagnetism field intensity and Canada shield the body’s ratio of electromagnetism field intensity. The commonly used decibel counts (dB) to indicate.
SE=A R B (1)
In the formula: A is the absorption loss;
R is the reflection loss;
B is many times the reflection loss.
2.1 electromagnetic wave reflection loss
Because the air and the shield metal’s electromagnetism wave impedance is different, causes the incident electromagnetic wave to have the reflex action. But the air electromagnetism wave impedance is dissimilar in the different field source and the field area, calculates as follows separately.
In magnetic field source near field’s reflection loss R(dB) is

In the formula: μr is the relative permeability;
σr is the relative conductivity;
f is the electromagnetism wave frequency (Hz);
D is the radiant to shields body’s distance (cm).
In electric field source near field’s reflection loss R(dB) is
![]()
In electromagnetic field source distant field’s reflection loss R(dB) is
R=168-10log10 (μrf/σr) (4)
2.2 electromagnetic wave absorption loss
When enters in the metallic shield the electromagnetic wave in the shield metal biography time transmission, as a result of weakens has the absorption. Absorption loss A(dB) is
![]()
In the formula: d is shielding material thickness (mm).
2.3 many times reflection losses
Electromagnetic wave in shielding layer multiple reflection loss B(dB) is

In the formula: Zm is the shield metal electromagnetism wave impedance;
Zw is the air electromagnetism wave impedance.
When A>10dB, generally may not count many times the reflection loss.
2.4 shield potency computation example
The field source is away from the different material the shield body (thickness 0.254mm) the 30cm far shield potency (dB) the computed result to see Table 1. Table 1 near field and the distant field threshold is λ/2π, Lamda is the electromagnetic field wave length.

3 shield matters needing attention
3.1 shield integrities
If shields the body not to be incomplete, will cause electromagnetic field divulging. Specially the electromagnetic field shield, it uses shields the body to produce the reversed direction turbulent flow magnetic field and the self-magnetic field counter-balance under the high frequency magnetic field function weakens the high frequency magnetic field disturbance. If shields the body not to be incomplete, the turbulent flow effect reduces, namely the shield effect sells at a discount greatly.
3.2 shielding material shield potency and application situation
The electromagnetic screen technology’s progress, urges the shielding material the form to develop unceasingly, but no longer limits to the single-layer metal dull pattern, the shield potency also unceasingly enhances. When application wants the special attention different shielding material to have the different shield potency and the application situation.

2) calibrates the check-out facility;
3) surveys does not have when the launch ambient level H;
4) surveys is unshielded when in the survey accepts after checking receives transmitter’s electromagnetism field intensity W;
5) surveys has when the shield in the survey accepts after checking receives transmitter’s electromagnetism field intensity Y.
4.3 shield potency SE examination analysis
The shield potency SE formula is
SE=20log10 [(W-H)/(Y-H)] (7)
After the computation, will shield potency SE and the design requirements compares, looked whether to achieve the design requirements, whether the safety margin does satisfy requests, whether to have had the design. If cannot meet the requirements, wants the concrete study reason and improves, until satisfies the request. If has had the design, also wants the concrete study reason and performs in the later design to improve.
