TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of radiated radiofrequency interference (RFI) on the operation of digital systems are studied by simulating the response of simple logic circuits to incident plane waves.
Abstract: The effects of radiated radio-frequency interference (RFI) on the operation of digital systems are studied by simulating the response of simple logic circuits to incident plane waves. The simulation is accomplished by combining a linear electromagnetic moment-method model of the wire structure with a nonlinear circuit model of the solid-state components. The complete model is analyzed in the linear and nonlinear regimes as an example. It is shown how a circuit simulator, such as SPICE, can be used in the analysis of an arbitrary wire network loaded with logic circuits, by the process of representing the linear wire network as a lumped-element N-port /spl pi/ network and interfacing it to the nonlinear circuit simulator. Examples are given that demonstrate the occurrence of both static and dynamic failures under various RFI-field excitations and wire structure geometries. The prediction methods presented in this paper, can be used by EMC engineers to assess the likelihood of failures in RFI-exposed digital systems,.

TL;DR: The paper elucidates the fact that the difference in the physics between solutions to Laplace's equation (static) and Maxwell's equations for dynamic problems (Helmholtz equation) affect the use of Laplacian field and Helmholtz field in imaging and the design of fast computational algorithms for electromagnetic scattering problems.
Abstract: This paper starts by discussing the difference in the physics between solutions to Laplace's equation (static) and Maxwell's equations for dynamic problems (Helmholtz equation). Their differing physical characters are illustrated by how the two fields convey information away from their source point. The paper elucidates the fact that their differing physical characters affect the use of Laplacian field and Helmholtz field in imaging. They also affect the design of fast computational algorithms for electromagnetic scattering problems. Specifically, a comparison is made between fast algorithms developed using wavelets, the simple fast multipole method, and the multi-level fast multipole algorithm for electrodynamics. The impact of the physical characters of the dynamic field on the parallelization of the multi-level fast multipole algorithm is also discussed. The relationship of diagonalization of translators to group theory is presented. Finally, future areas of research for computational electromagnetics are described.

TL;DR: A summary of recent progress in model-based optimization of phased arrays for electromagnetic hyperthermia is reported in this article, where a computationally efficient method for the optimization of the steady-state temperature distribution, a major driver of therapeutic response, has been developed.
Abstract: A summary of recent progress in model-based optimization of phased arrays for electromagnetic hyperthermia is reported. The electromagnetic phased array has the potential to overcome many of the difficulties associated with noninvasive hyperthermia, and is more effective if the driving amplitudes and phases of the array are carefully selected. A computationally efficient method for the optimization of the steady-state temperature distribution, a major driver of therapeutic response, has been developed. By employing a dual set of superposition principles, the technique minimizes the number of computationally expensive forward problems that must be solved in the course of an optimization. Additionally, a scheme that employs emerging noninvasive tomographic temperature estimation techniques, such as magnetic resonance thermometry, to perform optimization of a phased array has been developed and demonstrated experimentally. Conclusions about the potential value of each of the developed techniques are reached and directions for further research are indicated.

24 Jul 2006TL;DR: A differential electromagnetic analysis attack performed on a hardware implementation of an elliptic curve cryptosystem using the use of the distance of mean test to find the right key-bit.
Abstract: This paper describes a differential electromagnetic analysis attack performed on a hardware implementation of an elliptic curve cryptosystem. We describe the use of the distance of mean test. The number of measurements needed to get a clear idea of the right guess of the key-bit is taken as indication of the success of the attack. We can find the right key-bit by using only 2000 measurements. Also we give a electromagnetic model for the FPGA we use in our experiments. The amplitude, the direction and the position of the current on the FPGA's lines with respect to the position of the antenna have an influence on the measured electromagnetic radiation in the FPGA's surrounding area.

TL;DR: In this paper, an analytical procedure for the preliminary design of a high-speed ferrite-based brushless dc machine (HS-BLDC) has been proposed, in order to take into account their mutual influence in the definition of the geometry of the electrical machine.
Abstract: In this paper an analytical procedure for the preliminary design of a high-speed ferrite-based brushless dc machine (HS-BLDC) has been proposed. In particular, mechanical and electromagnetic modeling have been developed in order to take into account their mutual influence in the definition of the geometry of the electrical machine. In addition, suitable design targets have been imposed in accordance with electric vehicle application requirements. Hence, several mechanical and electromagnetic constraints have been introduced in order to comply with high-speed operation, preventing demagnetization issues of ferrite magnets as well. Subsequently, an HS-BLDC characterized by an inner rotor configuration has been designed in accordance with the proposed methodology. The analytical procedure and the corresponding results have been reported and validated by means of finite element analyses, highlighting the effectiveness of the proposed configuration and design solutions.
