Transmission-line modeling of shielding effectiveness of multiple shielded cables with arbitrary terminations

Campione, Salvatore; Basilio, Lorena I.; Warne, Larry K.; Langston, William L.

Cable shielding to protect against coupling of electromagnetic radiation into a component or circuit, particularly over large frequency bands, is at times a challenging task. It is general understanding that increasing the number of shields of a cable will improve the shielding performance. However, there are situations in which a cable with multiple shields may perform similar to or in some cases worse than a cable with a single shield, and this analysis has seldom been discussed in the literature. We intend to shed more light onto this topic in this paper.
