Authors had proposed a hybrid electromagnetic field analysis method suitable for an airport surface so far. In this paper, the hybrid method is validated by measurements by using a 1/50 scale-model of an airport considering several layouts of the buildings and sloping ground. The measured power distributions agreed with the analyzed ones within 5 dB errors excepting null points and the null positions of the distribution is also estimated within one wavelength errors.

This report describes an application of relaxation technique to the alternating direction implicit finite-difference time-domain (ADI-FDTD) method. The ADI-FDTD method is quite stable even when the CFL condition is not satisfied. However, the ADI-FDTD method is computationally more complicate than the conventional FDTD method and this method requires to solving the tri-diagonal matrix equation. Thus, this method may require more computational cost than the standard FDTD method due to the large scale tri-diagonal matrix solution corresponding to a large number of meshes. In this report, relaxation-based solution technique is discussed for the matrix solution and a simple numerical example is shown. As a result, it is confirmed that ADI-FDTD method with the relaxation technique is useful for the acceleration of the electromagnetic field simulation.

This paper presents a method of analyzing the electromagnetic field inside an equipment housing. The electromagnetic field is assumed to be coming from outside and coupled into the housing through an aperture on the housing surface. The analysis is based on the transmission-line modeling method. Results of the analysis show a good agreement with the results of measurement. Also, it is found that the coupling through the aperture shows peaks at some frequencies that depend almost only on the structure of the housing and aperture and, therefore, can be estimated at the time of equipment design.

For estimating the radiated emission from a metallic enclosure, the authors have developed a numerical computational method which applied inverse analysis. A metallic enclosure containing a loop antenna was set up to be a model source for the numerical analysis. Magnetic fields around the enclosure were measured by measurement systems fabricated in the authors' laboratory. Using the measured magnetic fields, current distributions on the enclosure surface were determined by means of an inverse analysis utilizing the least squares method. From this surface current distribution, the electromagnetic field distributions were estimated by forward analysis on a cylindrical surface 3.0m in radius. The amount of the error in the estimated fields distribution was also discussed.

This paper theoretically evaluates the external electro-optic (EO) sampling of high-speed electrical signals using poled polymers as materials for a proximity electric-field sensor. Based on the derivation of the half-wave voltage and the analysis of a static electric field coupled to the polymeric media placed over IC interconnections, invasiveness, voltage sensitivity, and spatial resolution have been discussed. The polymeric sensors have shown to be used in contact with the IC interconnections with negligibly small invasiveness, thus making polymeric sensors provide higher sensitivity and spatial resolution than inorganic crystals such as GaAs and KD*P.
