FEI3280 Electromagnetic Compatibility, PhD Course 8.0 credits

Course offerings are missing for current or upcoming semesters.
Headings with content from the Course syllabus FEI3280 (Spring 2019–) are denoted with an asterisk ( )

Content and learning outcomes

Course contents

EMC for small isolated versus large distributed systems, coupling paths (conducted and radiated), effect of electrically long conductors/metallic structures, Point of Entries, EMC test methods, low level testing, stochastic tests, mitigation methods, system design and “graceful degradation, time varying system states, EU directive, standardization works, legislation and current Swedish law, Nuclear Electromagnetic Pulses (NEMP) and High Altitude Electromagnetic Pulses (HEMP), Intentional electromagnetic Interference (IEMI) and jamming, Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GIC).

Intended learning outcomes

After the course the student should be able to understand, describe and apply in scientific investigation the difference in creating a state of electromagnetic compatibility between small “isolated” systems and in large distributed systems. This in terms of:

  • Interconnectedness and interdependencies.
  • Coupling paths and “Point of Entry” for EMI.
  • EMC testing.
  • Mitigation and protection methods
  • Standardization and legislation.
  • Non-traditional disturbance characteristics.
  •  EM-sabotage/terrorism (Intentional electromagnetic interference, IEMI) and jamming.

Examination and completion

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

Grading scale

P, F

Examination

  • EXA1 - Examination, 8.0 credits, grading scale: P, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.

Other requirements for final grade

  • Oral presentation of a selected topic.
  • Completed weekly home-work problems on time.

Opportunity to complete the requirements via supplementary examination

Ethical approach

  • All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
  • In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
  • In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
